Comments on: The title of this blog really says it all… http://proudlybipolar.wordpress.com Just another WordPress.com weblog Thu, 06 Nov 2008 23:45:08 +0000 http://wordpress.com/ hourly 1 By: Tracy http://proudlybipolar.wordpress.com/about/#comment-11 Tracy Tue, 14 Oct 2008 20:41:00 +0000 #comment-11 Love the title. Though I must say I'm more of the Annoyingly Bipolar crowd. The 'don't say hello cause then I might cry' type. I'm emerging now from a pretty thick bout of down swoop and my new blog is the flip side up swing from that low point. I did a nice nose dive after quitting a job for mental health reasons, not very encouraging, but I was physically hurting myself in a subconscious attempt to get myself out of a bad situation. Luckily I'm aware enough of myself and tendencies to see the signs before I did something permanent. But the drag was the guilt of quitting an income that was crucial to our financial stability. With help from a generous sis in law, 2 months of mentally beating myself up and (luckily) mild suicidal thoughts have now ended and the resultant dramatic joy is manifesting itself in tons of creative energy focused on building a sustainable nurturing home based business. So yeah, I get ya lady! Keep up the good work and keep being aware of yourself! Tracy Love the title. Though I must say I’m more of the Annoyingly Bipolar crowd.

I look forward to reading it on a regular basis too to educate myself on mental illness. How often will you be blogging? I knew several people with mental illness and feel a need to understand them instead of being scared and hurt. So I just want to thank you again for the privilege. I've felt a need to understand mental illness even more so after I heard of Paul Hester's suicide. I miss him very much too. I'm glad you are alive too! It was truly a joy to meet you at the Tim Finn concert in San Fran. Helen Hi Dyane!

Beautiful too, because you're still here. Your writing is so raw and transparent I feel like I'm listening to you from across the table over a cup of tea. Thank you for putting yourself out there in the world. It's a pleasure, it's moving, and it's inspiring. The entry is chilling in its honesty. Beautiful too, because you’re still here.
