Try actually living too. It helps.

Stop analyzing every mood every nuance and trying to predict what comes next. I've discovered that being/living like that induces its own kind of psychological stress, and stress + bp 〓 faecal matter.

Yes awareness helps in navigating your mood cycles and also episodes, but paying too much attention, or hyper awareness, just sucks the fun out of life because it is a stressor. Sooner or later you end up living, eating, breathing and farting bipolar. Not healthy. Balance is important, we know this, so we try to live a balanced lifestyle regarding food, alcohol, sleep etc. But we forget to stay mentally balanced, which makes things worse because bp is already the epitome of being unbalanced.

So yeah, for me it has helped immensley to just be, to live my life free of wondering what happens next or waiting for the other shoe to drop. That caused major imbalances in itself so is very counter productive when bp is involved.
