thanks so very much for the warm and loving words, they really helped me to not feel so alone.
today, i'm feeling a little agitated, as is normal for me when i don't get enough sleep. its weird- my eyes and body feel weary, my brain is racing- i guess that's the bipolar. i'm going to the dr shortly to get a baseline blood draw before i start the lithium.
i pray it works.
i was really manic last saturday and went to the bridge, paced and cried and looked down at the rushing waters. i cried for a long time and then went home and called my therapist. she always wonders why i don't call first. i don't know. i don't think of that when i'm in a frenzy.
well, its off to the doc.
thanks again to those who wrote to me! bless you all!

I am glad it helped a little bit and I am glad you called your doctor and that you decided you are going to do something about it. I don't really know what being bipolar means so I can not say I know what I am talking about but I understand the self harm feelings. I hope you do whatever it takes to steer yourself away from this path. People here are wonderful and always willing to hear you out and offer support! I hope you feel better soon! Our thoughts are with you
