Hi, Rainbows and Roses. I feel the same way about wanting to feel alive again and take care of my skin and get out and walk. That's exactly what I've started doing again.

sylviahomeatlast, My dear friend of 61 years passed away in 2011 due to breast cancer and she was manic depressive. She had her highs and lows until the doctor put her on Lithium in the 70's which changed her life for the better. It saved her marriage, made her a better mother and allowed her to enjoy life. I hope there is some form of treatment that will help you...I wish you well.

yes--thank you so much--I've taken Lithium for about 25 years. --I have my ups and downs like everybody---you don't have to be afraid of me---my Dr says patients like me and your friend and almost all patients are gentle---news tries to make us dangerous out of ignorance. ))

I don't understand why you said, "you don't have to be afraid of me". I certainly never said that nor did anyone else. I loved my friend and she was never a danger to anyone but herself before she was put on medication. Why would someone be afraid of a manic depressive person? I am confused by your comment.

Hi Rainbows & Roses. The commenting is closed on your other thread so I will comment here. I'm sure your nose biopsy was not a ""walk in the park"" for you. Mine hurts just thinking about it. I hope you feel better soon.

Hello PinkSugar I just love your name.......what thread did they poof of mine? Thank you for your nice comments on the biopsy. Today I feel better........in fact.......I walked the treadmill for 16 minutes and I am going back to walk more in a bit......that is not long but I moved up to walk up hill.......and it has been so long since I have walked that long at once........I worked on some green plants that come up each year in my two of my concrete pots and then my rose bush.........it rained they said last night but I can't hear the rain in my home.........I had a good day today. I also worked in my workout room in my desk and discarding things that needed to be tossed........mail and papers......to hate papers and I have so many.....not now though.......I have some clothes drying.......so happy I am not in bed today and I am pushing myself.........three weeks and I will be on my way to Texas to see my grandbaby.

Some people are afraid of people with bipolar-manic disorder.........I have had 4 friends with this illness........one did not take her medicine and although she was fun she was a mess........never on time....spending money she did not have like writing hot checks......buying and buying........I would call her rich grandmother and tell her to help send her money because her grandmother thought the world of me for being her friend but I loved her......she got in trouble with the law and I just had to back away.........but she did not like the way she felt on her medicine.........it is a touch sickness and some people want to die.........I wish I knew where she was now........I hope she is doing better......She moved away but I just could not stay around her doing illegal things........she was so smart........straight A's in college.............I enjoyed learning from her......she knew about everything even art and poetry..........I miss her but I had to walk away.

Hello LucyGoose..........I am so happy you feel this way. We had such a cold winter and I was so sad and sick.......Spring in time for life and NEW THINGS.......new promises and new hope and I thank Y'shua/Jesus our Savior for the joy he has laid in my heart for today. Just knowing something to look forward to keeps me going a long time.

I am happy that I put on my skin cream last night and I have used Restasis today also......and I will use again tonight........seems like there is so much to do to keep ourselves looking nice and healthy. The weight.....I hope to loose some in Texas.......there will be many foods I can't eat and my son said I would have to eat them anyway well I am not going to.......so.........I can't have spicy foods anymore and I love them....and that is all they eat. I have to eat bland....but I have made it fun. Anyway I think I will be up and down with the baby so much that I will stay very busy........and while my son is off work during the afternoon I want to be out of the apartment going and going. We can do things with my DIL on Saturday afternoons and Sundays........she will be working the other times so I will have a long time with my son and I am ready for that. So glad you are going to be doing what needs to be done...we can encourage each other and other ladies that want to join in.

I know You have enough to deal with as it is. my Son was whacked on the head with a case of tequila by a shoplifter at the store my Son was working at. It was a miracle that he survived. It has been a long and difficult recovery and he was no longer able to continue the career he had studied so long and hard for because of the injury.

Hello Azcowgirl.......thank you about the nose issues....I am believing for no cancer or surgery.....this stupid thing is on top of the other four issues I have. I will know more Friday of this week. I AM SO UPSET about your son.........how horrible. How long ago was this? Yes it is a miracle he survived and he is a hero also. Have you ever visited dr. Johnson's site tbi guide dot com? It is a wonderful site for the brain injuried and their family and friends...........yes it is a long recovery and I am so sorry he can't continue the career he had studied so long.......I hope the criminal is still in prison........
