I'm Back!

It is strange how something such as a book can get you down and make you feel worthless and useless. Facing Bipolar was all that for me. I thought it would be okay reading it and that I could trust it because it was written by a psychologist. Boy was I wrong! I don't like people telling me that I can't do things because I am bipolar. That is not 100% true. As my therapist just told me the other day, I just have to take an alternate route. But I will get there. She actually just gave me a book to read that she highly recommends. The book is An Unquiet Mind: A Memoir Of Moods And Madness  by Kay Redfield Jamison who happens to be a Professor of Psychiatry at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine who suffers from bipolar disorder. It shows how she made it. My therapist (Lily) says that the book actually helped her get a better picture of what I am going through. So I think this one may be a big help.
