That’s how long it’s been since my suicide attempt and my diagnosis as bipolar. I couldn’t be happier. My husband keeps me in check and makes sure I don’t get too manic or depressed. My psychiatrist has helped me get medication under patient assistance (I’m uninsured and taking 200mg Lamictal and it’s super expensive).
Overall, I’m pretty happy with the way I am. I no longer need to try to be “normal” because I am normal for me.
I’ve done it for the past two years…
I just realized that it’s ten days in. I guess I’ll have go into October.
