Hi I'm sheba1964

Hi-ya all,just wanted to say hi.I have just discovered the site,& having had experience with Bi-polar /manic depression want to be involved to support & encourage anyone battling this nasty condition.

I am on top of my game now,it still requires my management,but that is not that hard.

Please know that life can greatly improve with good support & the right medication to suit you.

 

You are truely worthy & beautiful people-never give in to this battle,you can win!!!!!

 

 

Thanks serafena-I found the site last night,think its amazing,what you are all doing here,I so wish I had know of it many years ago ,when I too,knew the Black Hole,so to speak...
I have told many peeps of your site today,on my dating site message board,as there are many peeps on the site that have problems.Maybe your team may get to offer them support too.Any ways,have a very groovy days one & all.

And please peeps,remember----Be gentle on yourselves----you are beautiful,& you are worthy.....

Hi BP Gemini-thanks for your welcome.
Yes you are so right-BP people to tend to be hard on themselves-I know I used to be ,& still have to get reminded at times,lol
It's one of the things I have been able to keep in my head from my counsiling-to be gentle on myself.
And to monitor my self talk,& I found that I used to beat myself up,for things to had turned bad in my life.
I had huge dissappoint ment from my failed marriage,among other things,& I think it just all finally errupted as I had tried to just bottle it all up-I think it was the suppressing it,that created the erruption of blackness in the end.
But I got good help from my G>P>--& with some time & councilling managed to eventually get on top of things again.I have since found I still need to constantly manage my self-esteem,with practical ways,to remind myself that I am a good person,& that there is no-one else the same as me-GOD DOSEN'T MAKE JUNK....Have an awesome day,all you very cool people.

Welcome Aboard Sheba!

Hi Olivia-thanks for your welcome-love your quote,lol.
How drab life is-if we do not challenge ourselves...to some little thing better -each day.For our-selves ,& also for those around us.

I think you're the first New Zealander I've encountered on the board, sheba. That's very cool. You're a very positive force -- I'm glad you're here.

Cheers BP Gemini-I am good most days thanks-but still do have days when you feel flat,& not quite so positive,but I think any person has those.I think we are a constant work in progress,& that we have to self manage in the sense of keeping our selves positive,even when we don't feel like it.
Yes those days of new meds can be very confusing,I'm hopeing for you ,its just your body getting used to new chemicals,& things will become more consistant with time..
Remember the little things,to help keep you up,cute puppies,& fluffy Kittens,things that melt our hearts,& keep us focused on the BEAUTIFUL in life.
Have an awesome day-& smile & laugh at yourself for your unique qualities.Sometimes I think we get caught up in the BEING TOO SERIOUS,with our self examining sometimes.So I think we need to remember to give ourselves some time out from that sometimes,lol.
