I am SO SELFISH with my chocolate. My boyfriends used to laugh at me. They KNEW not to try to get any of my dessert if it was chocolate. Anything else was fine. They FEARED me when I had a plate of chocolate in front of myself.

Close Bipolar Disorder
I have been hospitalized twice for "attempts" of alcohol related suicide; then they determined with blood work and such that I was severe bipolar. Now I take SOME meds. Recently got a DUI and am paying for that one...didn't know you couldn't carry your meds outside script bottle. boyfriend and I just broke up and I moved out. I haven't had a drink since Jan. So I'm back with my parents and depressed as ever. Looking for some support.

I got a dui for my bp meds. They weren't in their correct containers and I got busted. Well I wasn't drunk but I will say that my pdoc had prescribed me something new about two days prior and whew when they kicked in.....I was sent home from work and on way. So I got a year probation, suspended license, 50 hrs comm serv. about $3000 in fines dui school and now group sessions for 24 wks. Little harsh I believe but oh the joys of living in FL. I love animals, cooking, plants,and reading.
