New And Looking to Converse

 

I was a part of healthy place, many years ago now, and found it extremely helpful.  I fell away as other parts of life had my attention (raising my son, watching my partner go from bing drinking to getting sober - 2 1/2 years now and am incredible proud of him).  Diagnosised with bi-polar over 12 years ago and now, although the med's I use are keeping things on a somewhat even keel, I am prone to incredible amounts of depression.  This last bout has lasted over a month and now I have decided I needed a break from the...kaos of day to day at home.  I am leaving on Monday to spend time away - 5 days - to try and prioritize what in my life is needed.

Not certain how this is going to work through, I just know that a break is needed.  I think that speaking with others that have, or are going through, the same type of bouts would help immensely - help to pull me out of the dark hole I find myself in.  The next week is suppose to be beautiful - sunny and spring temperatures.  Shall try and get out and soak up rays as I realize the importance of light and fresh air.
