So it has been a long time since my last post....but I have been well. In fact I have been very well! My panic and anxiety have severely decreased since my doctor increased my Abilify. It has helped me get my sleep back on schedule which was greatly needed.
But on to the other side of life.......I am branching out socially, help me stay optimistic.
I went to a Lia Sophia party at a friends house and had a blast. We played games, drank Sangria, danced (yes I danced and sang in front of a group to win a discount) I am a whore for any kind of discount...to an extent. But anyhow, I was having such a good time and won so much stuff and had such a great time that I agreed to host a Lia Sophia party. To me it is not about making any money by pushing costume jewelry on my friends but rather a house welcoming party. A chance for me to get my home ready for guest and to break out of my shell.
See I have been in my first bought home for about 2 years now and have only had my best friend over 2 times. My parents have been over once or twice....it is ridiculous. I have this nice home that is only 12 years old and it is a mess. I want it spic and span and full of people having a good time. I am very excited. So my motives are not beneficial to Lia Sophia really but I think my intentions are good!
I feel refreshed and renewed....I owe a part of this to my psychiatrist but also to myself for fighting to be my best by any means.

Oh, come in
It is an honor to have you. The contents for this blog are from my personal experiences. Sometimes I will write about being bipolar and sometimes I won't.
I have been Bipolar I for 10+years and medicated for over 9. This blog looks into my treatment history, current therapies, my interest, recipes, love, music, and everything in between. I am hoping that those dealing with mental illness will find comfort, friendship, awareness, entertainment, and maybe even a few good answers. Most importantly, I hope those of you out there struggling will realize you are not alone.

ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely beautiful and gives me so much hope.
ReplyDeleteI was released from a 5 day stay in the hospital. i'm scraping from the bottom up now.
It's good to read posts like this xo
This is so wonderful to hear! I'm so glad you're getting out and about and are doing so well.
ReplyDeleteI am so proud of you! It takes guts and you are going for it, good for you!!
ReplyDeleteThank you all for the supportive comments...it gave me a big smile!
ReplyDeleteKimberly: I do hope you rise from the ashes soon. Proud of you for going inpatient when you need to.
Glad to hear you're doing well! I pushed through my anxiety a few months ago and went to a Lia Sophia party. Wasn't any dancing, but we did play games and I actually enjoyed myself. I really like the jewelry and there were several items I wanted to buy, but due to that good old lack-o-money problem, I was only able to get a pair of silver & black hoop earrings.
ReplyDeleteI hope your party is a great success and opens you up to having guests over more often!
Sid: I didn't buy to much either at the recent party...but I did win a pair of ear rings that I love. Anyhow I am so happy for you being able to get a grip on your anxiety. Thank you for commenting Sid.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are doing so well, Pink! You have come so far since this blog started. I remember the days before you had your home, way back when you were struggling more and I think you have come a really long way...you are doing amazing work!
