Two Years

Well, it has been almost a year since I posted in my journal so I figured it is finally time to start posting again.  This past year has been very trying and interesting but as of the 18th of April I have two years sober.  In this past year I have been waiting to hear about my disability and I finally got it.  I have not had to be hospitalized for the bipolar but I have had some very trying days.  I just used my tools that have been given to me to get through them.  I recently spoke with my sponsor and she is still very proud of me and the progress I am making in my life. I guess I am most proud of the fact that I did not pick up a drink to deal with the bipolar this past year.  This is how I dealt with the ups and downs of the disease in the past and had become an automatic fix whenever my bipolar would rear it's ugly face and send me on a whirlwind rollercoaster ride.  Anyway, I made it through another year and with HP's help I will make it to birthday number 3 the same way.
