    About Me

    I am 33 years old and I am on SSDI and have been for about 3 three years now. I do not have any children except two Basset hounds which are my heart. I have had Bipolar I for about four years now (diagnosed that is). It's my cure and my curse. I love love love my manias but my depressions send me to the pits of despair. I'm a happy manic. I get really happy and excited when I'm manic. I've been on every medicine that exists and still trying to find the right ones. My husband is extremely supportive. I'm looking for the same thing here :)

    Interests

    Swimming, laying out, reading, watching football (Auburn), Racing, writing poetry, journaling And HOUND DOGS!!!

    • Close Bipolar Disorder

      Currently trying to find the right "cocktail" to get me back to "me." I so miss that. Sometimes I don't know who me is anymore. Bipolar has ruined my life and has brightened my life at the same time. Only people with BP can understand this. I need support from people who "know" how I feel. Nobody around me does and it helps knowing I'm not the only one.
