I am feeling really good and blessed this Thanksgiving. There are several reasons for feeling this way. My husband still has a job that helps provide for our little family. For friendships that pave a way to our current happiness. Thanking God for all my friendships in my life, online and in real life. I pray for blessings upon them each and every day. My mood is good. Emotions can be tumultuous at times, but I can handle it. Facebook at this time sucks! Looking forward to Thursday. Today is Tuesday. I saw the doctor and we both agreed there was no mania nor depression lately. New prescriptions were written and I see the therapist soon. Life is good...

It's interesting how even when you feel/are stable, you can still hit a low within a day's time. I felt I sunk into a low just yesterday for most of the day, then I came back up to normal in the evening. This bipolar thing sucks. I am what I am, which is a person with a mental illness. And it is what it is, which is unpredictable, sadly.

Ever since I started the Seroquel for helping me sleep, I've improved in my mood. I am now sleeping and waking like I should. I will admit that with the Seroquel I could sleep at least 10-12 hours and feel wonderful. But I try to sleep 8 hours. I do wake up with tiredness or sluggishness every morning that is gone once I do exercise. My mood has been the best in all my life and the best even whilst I began seeing the psychiatrist almost 10 years ago. So my meds (for now) are keeping me stable and I can smile easily. I feel really good and I hope it lasts a good long while, if not indefinitely. I currently take Lithium 900mg, Lamictal 300mg, Abilify 15mg, Wellbutrin XL 300mg, and Seroquel 100mg. Valium 10mg as needed. Let's see how this may change in the future. Just curious.

I feel myself continually growing as a person. I felt so much growth today in terms of my ability to see things in my life as a positive thing to be had. I can stand back and say that I truly love my life. I am so happy and blessed each and everyday. Even my difficulties and the dreaded unknown future is a blessing to me today. I cannot, but be very thankful. My illness is stable and it is a good thing. I learn from my past difficulties that I can be there for others with simply my words. How lucky can you be! I am at my most upbeat mood. I don't fear the future anymore. I look forward to it now with much hope and intense joy and happiness.

My mind is going in circles at times. I am slowing it down and taking my issues to the therapist. I pay top dollar so they had better help me out. I am trusting them with my issues that I have at this time. Just for the sake of reminding me now and in the future, I am thankful for my good friends. I am thanking God for them. They help pave our way in a life where we seem to feel lost. Thank you.
