Rebuilding slowly
Since my last post here which was more than a year ago, much has happened. I have been diagnosed with Bipolar affective disorder with a side order of PTSD and anxiety disorder. I have been put on new medication for these things and that appears to be working. I have discovered how to sleep, and how to go to bed at a 'normal' hour in the evening. I am slowly rebuilding my life and rediscovering how I want my life to look.
I am single, and sharing a house with a good friend and am studying counselling at a local college. I am happy if a little battle worn.
This is a slow process, and identifying the things I want to keep and those which don't serve me anymore and might be set aside is a large part of the process. I feel stable and almost sane, but I really have no desire to be completely sane, nor do I know if such a state even exists. It's fun to have a little bit of an edge after all!
I have been busy with all this, and my blogs have gone neglected, but I am still alive and still putting one foot in front of the other.
