Dxed BP in 1993, at age 20.

I love music, and have a master's degree in conducting. (Like my sn hints, my major instrument is flute.) Right now I am teaching a few private lessons a week for a music school, but I am in school right now to get an Ontario teaching certificate.

Name? I like being name less here. I do use my middle name instead of my first name.


Where you live? where it's sunny


Have you been diagnosed with bipolar? yes, I still haven't asked what type. But, it's possible that I was told and put it out of my mind. If so, when? around March 2005, I'd have to ask for specifics.


Anything about yourself, your past and your goals. I'm married, have three young children and work full time. I'm only feeling a little out of sorts sometimes. My sleeping is getting better so I'm feeling more relaxed.

Name? K


Where you live? Where it is hot and there is water


Have you been diagnosed with bipolar? yes

I try not to post anything personal about myself. I may just be paranoid but too many people where I live do not know about my "issues". I can't take the chance of getting destroyed by it again. THis also can make things hard to share as well.
