I agree but what is the difference when they use diff pics and stuff rather than a real photo. I still wonder who they are. I haven't put my photo up for fear someone local to me will recognize me. Pdoc told me not to tell anyone I am BP at least not where I work, less is better.

i do agree that putting photos up isn't always a good idea. i'm probably going to take down the ones i've posted sometime soon because it's starting to make me nervous...

yr right, you can't see the person's face, but avatars give me a great idea (usually) of the person's personality or at least their interests.

If they stay avatar-free for ages I usually figure they're a luddite.

Yesterday i was one of the gray shadows. Today I'm a fish. Why we have to hide? Because we are bipolar. We are people with a disorder and thats all.

hmmm... well you need to find an image, like wherever you get it from... and save it, probably just to your desktop... then on your profile where you click on "change picture"... click that... then you can upload the image from your desktop.

i don't even know if that's right. seriously should be sleeping.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
