about
I'm a mother of 2 boys who are 13 months apart. Talk about a handful. I'm a wife to the best husband I could have ever dreamed of.I'm one of the very blessed.
I have Bipolar 1 Disorder. I hate taking all these medications and always going to doctors appointments, but life is too short to let mental illness get the better of me.
Often times life is a challenge, and nobody knows that better than me. I wake up wondering if this is going to be a day my illness overpowers my meds, and either sends me flying like a bat out of hell, or leaves me laying on the couch like a wet dish rag.
Thank all that is good in the world that I have an excellent support system at home.
I'm one of the lucky ones.
I'm honest, and that can either be a perk or s flaw. Depends on how you choose to look at it.
I like to see it as a perk, because it's better to hear the truth than to be told candy coated bullshit.
advice
Okay, so I get basically 'good' grades at school and everything, but this year I want to try out for the girls' soccer team-even though the coach is sort of rude. The coach doesn't like me, and I'm afraid of her. She says I'm not good enough for the team. And I'm afraid my friends will laugh at me since I think I'm sort of fat, and that they'll say the same.
Here's a thought for you:
Wouldn't you just love to prove that coach wrong?
If you go out there and put heart into your game play, you will be good enough for any team.
And what kind of friends would laugh at you??
(Rating: 5) Gosh, thank you! I'd never thought that I could, or if my friends were really friends or not, but I'm going to give this thing a shot. Thanks!
