| A little about me: | I am not sure how much this page will hold. So I guess a little about me will have to be short. Well, I am bi-polar, PTSD, Agoraphobic, Panic disorder, I guess as strange as this sounds, I was diagnosed at the age of 17, my Dad took me to a pdoc and that was her first impression. That was in 1980. She was a smart lady. So I have had a lot of time to work on myself, did I??? Nooooo, why should I, I was superwoman, young pretty, funny, smart, HA HA HA what an inflated ego I had, I am on disability, that lack of stress of working has helped alot. I raised three children by myself, no family support, they just dis owned me cause they figured I was the black sheep. I guess they thought I like what I did wrong. they did not understand the concept that this is a disease and we can not control our impulses. Any way, I think that I can help others since I have had this for so long, I am no expert, I still manic, I still act out, I still get depressed, but I understand my triggers now, and I cope much better than before. I have been on every med known to man. But there are new ones everyday!!! I still pray to God for a cure. I still thank God for everyday I get to be here.(I had a few stupid attempts at suicide)I look forward to meeting everyone. and I thought maybe these song lyrics kind of describe us bi-polars. they are Christina Aguileras not mine. Kudos to you. Christina,you read my mind!! Thanks for listening Kelley Look at me, You may think you see who i really am But you'll never know me Everyday its as if I play a part Now i see if i wear a mask I can fool the world but i cannot fool my heart Who is that girl i see staring straight back at me when will my reflection show who i am inside I am now in a world where i have to hide my heart and what i believe in but somehow i will show the world what's inside my heart and be loved for who i am Who is that girl i see staring straight back at me why is my reflection someone i don't know must i pretend that im someone else for all time when will my reflection show who i am inside There's a heart that must be free to fly that burns with a need to know the reason why why must we all conceal what we think how we feel must there be a secret me i'm forced to hide I won't pretend that i'm someone else for all time when will my reflection show who i am inside when will my reflection show who i am inside |
