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.

Hey everyone! I have this mood problem and I don't know how to stop! I don't wanna see a doctor and I am completely fine well when I'm at school I can't stay positive I try to but I'm always negative about school and confidence I wanna be happy I have way to much worries in my head I have this voice that talks in my head negatively most of the time I just want it to go away. sometimes when I stop worrying I start thinking positively I went through depression in the past. When I think negative I get this attitude but when positive I'm happy. my happiness doesnt last that long anymore my mom and everyone I know are amazing and nice to me. Except for my dad he divorced my mom 3 years ago when my depression was bad. I dislike my dad he doesn't care about my family hes a selfish person but that does not effect me or mom we just want to him away from us as possible. Yeah Sure i wish my dad was different but he's not i don't mind it as much any more but all I need is a way to make money to help out my mom with out leaving my house I can't drive I'm only f17 I mean i can drive but it will take a while till I get my permit well thats I'm gonna go
Have advice for me comment bye
You should consider going to a therapist about your mood problem. They can help figure out what exactly is going on, and if it is something medical, they can refer you to a doctor who specializes in mood disorders.
Trust me on this one- Don't go to your family doc with mood problems. They don't specialize in that area, and often misdiagnose and mistreat mood disorders. That happened to me for many years before I was properly diagnosed and treated.
As for an in-home job, I can't help you with that one.
