Being Bipolar

I am noticing some very big changes in myself lately. For the first time in a while I am able to control my anger. The crying spells have completely stopped and I am laughing again. I don’t feel antsy or on edge – I just feel normal.

I will admit that I have had a mild spell of mania, but it was a refreshing change from the severe depression that I had been dealing with. Today, I feel more stable. I am beginning to feel like me again. I had been depressed for so long that I had almost forgotten what that felt like. It’s nice.

The medication is no longer making me nauseous but I am groggy. I’m sure that will subside after I have been taking it for a while. I still have the fog and moments of confusion but that too shall pass. I just have to wait it out.

On another note, I want to thank everyone who has returned a completed questionnaire and/ or hosted a banner. If you would like to complete a questionnaire, there is still time. I will be accepting them up until the last week of February. If you would like to host the banner to promote Bipolar Awareness Month, you can find the code on the Bipolar Awareness page or you can email me at beingbipolar@writersbeacon.com.

Sunday, February 1 will kick off Bipolar Awareness Month. I will also be posting a picture of me so be sure to stop in. February 2, I will begin posting my readers’ experiences with Bipolar Disorder.

Thanks to everyone for their support during this difficult time and I would especially like to thank all of you for your support of Bipolar Awareness Month.
