Every person with bipolar is different. I can tell when I'm in a downcycle because I have an unbearable ache to be silent--I can't stand hearing the sound of my voice, or seeing any sign of myself in the world--& I'm furious with myself for not just going away & being silent forever.
It passes, & my downcycles used to be much, much worse, but when they come around they carry such history.
The trick is not being angry at all the waste.
Feed gratitude for still being here at all.
Rebecca is wonderful. A dear heart who brings her hardwon wisdom to every kindness she shares. π I'm grateful for your own warmth and generosity too.
Good critters all around, up in here. :)
