I've finally landed safely from my trip to the moon. Meds finally kicked in and today I'm closer to normal than I've been in a couple of weeks. What a relief.....I've got an insanely busy week coming up with working 7 days out of 8, which includes three days at a training seminar for registered nurse care managers (which I am NOT, but I think I'm going to be promoted very soon). I didn't need to be manic during that!!

Weird how episodes can come out of thin air. I was going along nicely, feeling perfectly normal and minding my own business, and then summer happened. And of course the new/old job happened. Neither one should have triggered a major reaction. But they did, and I'm still amazed at how BP can blow up like this. It's such a fascinating illness......but it would be a lot more fascinating if I didn't have it!
