I’ve been on meds for a few weeks now and I really feel as though I am stabilizing.
Today was a great day all around. I got to spend time with my wife and our kids. I am still learning the intricacies of how my moods swing and how it impacts me and my behavior. My wife knows me better than anyone else in this world and has been an amazing source of information as she is able to point out things that others would dismiss as normal.
What is normal for some folks might not necessarily be normal for me
I am 38 years old and recently learned that I am bipolar. I am learning as much as I can as I discover myself with this newly acquired "label". I am not afraid of the diagnosis, rather I am afraid of not being able to learn and live with the diagnosis. I firmly believe that with the right medication and right medical care I can continue to live a successful life post diagnosis while keeping my eyes open for potential pitfalls that I am learning to be more acutely aware of.
