Well I am revamping my blog. For several reasons I needed a place I could come and release so of the daily things I have going on. I also wanted a place where moms or any person who has bipolar to come and know that there was someone out there like them and who understands what they are going thru. So here are some things about me to get us started.
I was Dx with bipolar when I was younger not sure excatly what age. I also was told I have PTSD and aniexty/panic disorder. I do go weekly to see a therapist and I also see the dr who gives me my meds. I have found the search for a therapist to be the hardest thing for me to do bc I wanted someone I could feel like I could tell anything to them and not feel so judged. In the past I could not fully open up to my therapist bc I felt akward around them esp telling them the most darkest secrets. I have lived with some of them secrets for a very long time. My daughter is very understanding at the age of 4. She is wise beyond her yrs. I am greatful that I get to wake up with her in my life. Yes there are days when I wonder what the world but she helps me get thru it. I also found a really great man who has been by my side for almost 14 yr and he takes alot of mess from me.
I get this question alot from ppl who dont know about this mental disorder like...Will your daughter have this when she gets older? Do other ppl in your family have this? What can I learn from this and you? Well here are the answers I give yes my daughter may have it when she gets older she already is a very emotional kid, yes I have other ppl in my family with this, and what you can learn about this and me is this life is full of up and downs and its full of bumps take what it gives you and learn from each thing. Take your meds like they tell you to do what they ask and my biggest thing I tell other ppl who have bipolar is this if there is anytime that you can not handle anything try to write it down if that does not help call your therapist that is what they get paid for.
Well this is it for tonite I will be back to tell you all more about life as a bipolar mom.
