Well, the impact on people around you? The fact that you'd be going out on a really low note...Because your feelings may change when your mood and perspective change x

It matters because you're beautiful, though granted,some days this affliction robs you of your ability to see it. Life without you wouldn't be so "lively"! I pray that your spirit finds rest and rejuvenation, and I offer you an ear, a shoulder, and much love... anytime you need! hugs~

because tomorrow...might be better. Your mood might lift, your smile might brighten someones day, and your brain chemicals will be a new mixed drink.

I'm sorry you feel this way. Just know that it is temporary. You need to live because you have 3 beautiful kids to raise and
* Because you have an illness that makes you want to kill yourself.

* Because you are not just depressed - you have depression.

* Because - just like with any other illness - you must get treatment to get rid of the symptoms & the pain !!

* Because you can treat depression, even cure it.

* Because your life has value and can be saved.

Because you're not always going to feel this way. Remember- we're bipolar! No matter how low things may seem right now- it's worth fighting because it's not always going to feel this way. Like Lou said, think about how the people around you would feel. It's ALWAYS worth it to push a little harder.

Because you have to. trust me, i've been there. Have the scars and medical bills to prove it. I mean, aside from anything else it matters because you even think about it. If it really didn;t matter, you would have already let it go. Face it living does matter, for others, and for you. Plus, I got to see two bikers on the path get stuck together and fall into the creek below my balcony today. humor has to be worth something?

    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...
