MisaBlue01"MD Junction has been a safe haven for me. I have met so many caring and understanding people and i don't feel so alone anymore with my bipolar. I now know that others suffer as well and that we need each other for support. I hope that one day we can all learn to love and respect each other more and that no one will have to suffer anymore."

2 = Depressed and I can tell it is going to hang around awhile

3 = Depressed - but my favorite ______ < insert word could cheer me up

4 = partly cloudy, moving but not motivated, functioning

5 = fine, functional, steady, stable, working list

6 = looking forward to the day, sunny, energized

7 = feeling great, looking FANTASTIC, couldn't be better

8 = up since 4 am cleaning, rearranged the living room, wrote the president, had sex twice

9= can't stop thinking, why are all these other people so slow and stupid, time is short possibilities unlimited, I need to write that down perhaps start a novel, get out of my way

10 = the television told me I was sent by God direct to save the world so I gave away all my worldly possessions and am walking the universe ridding it from evil as I find it...and it is everywhere

Hot damn! It is finally Friday! Yee- haw! I am a 5/6. It has been an extremely stressful week at work. We have several people out on vacation and one lady has pink eye and has been out. Thank goodness some of these people will be back Monday!

I am still working on connecting with a doctor and getting put back on my medications. I think I am doing a great job at maintaining as much stability as I can without my medications. ( Go Me! )

Anyways love ya all!

I hope everyone has a great day! Tongue

* When nothing goes right...go left
* Attach your own oxygen mask before assisting others
* Women are not that complicated. How hard is it to tell us
we are pretty and give us chocolate?
* Be kinder than necessary, for everyone is fighting their own battle.
* Worrying doesn't empty tomorrow of its troubles. It empties today of its strength.
