Hello everyone, I am a new member and my intention in joining this site is to share my story, and talk with others who battle with Bipolar. I am 46 years young, and at 43, after a suicidal breakdown (following a year of unusual behaviour, irrational thinking, very deep sadness etc), I was admitted to a psychiatric hospital for 1 month, and consequently diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder.
I have written a book titled "THE LIGHTS AREN'T ON, BUT SOMEONE'S HOME. A JOURNEY FROM DEPRESSION TO BIPOLAR". This book is filled with my heartfelt messages, experiences, and lessons. I share with the reader how I stay weller longer, (In addition to medication). The topics and focus of my book are on self-esteem, faith, value systems, sex, gratefulness and more. It is extra important to work on these subjects when battling with the effects of Bipolar and depression.
I woke up one day and I was no longer the person I thought I was. I have chosen to live my life, with Bipolar, in an unashamed, diginified, fulfilling, and spirited manner. My website for a sticky beak is: www.depressiontobipolar.com.au
Sincerely Louise
