Hello!

It seems a bit strange for me to be sitting here on the Internet looking for people to talk to, but I feellike perhaps it is time I do so. I do not really know anyone except for myself that is bipolar. I don't think it would matter really, I can be quite anti-social.

Anyway about me and then what I am looking for.

I am a 38 year old woman who was raised in the southwestern part of the United states, but I have lived in Sweden for over 15 years. I am single (twice divorced) and have a 2.5 year old with my ex-wife. We have her 50/50.

I work at a high security jail in Stockholm and of course considering the situation we are all in here, it can be tough. At the moment my doctor has me off for a few weeks to relax. (I was going on all 4 cylinders)

In my free time I usually go to the gym. I life weights about 6 times a week. It gets me out of the house and keeps me going.

I love to write, long mails about my thoughts, my day and any other normal stuff you would share with a friend. I feel like perhaps I would get more out of having a penpal who understands my illness a bit better.

Anyway I am sure it is something that comes up. I am bipolar 1 and take lithium, citroloprlam, lamictal, seroquel,levaxin, and Xanax.

So if you feel like writing let me know.
