I have been feeling really good...thank God...
I daresay I have been the most "normal" than I have felt...ever!!
That said, I came across this article and I thought it very relevant.
It was just a little over six years ago that I hit rock bottom. It was a mixed state of mania and depression, coupled with extreme stress, that nearly killed me. I am grateful that I survived. The article discusses the author's struggle with Bipolar Disorder when experiencing the "mixed state" and it made me feel a little better because I didn't realize others experience it. It is like being tied to the railroad tracks, with the train barreling down on you, during a tornado.
I am just glad I have learned coping strategies to weather the storm!
Life is good!
Happy Independence Day weekend everyone!
