Wildflower that's what I had in mind....showing support. I'm not talking poring my symptoms on FB. I'm not a "share feelings on FB" type of person. I think I want to start posting numbers for support groups and other help agencies. I'm "not" going to post ....."Hi FB friends I'm manic." I just kinda feel like 1). It's my page and should be what fits my personality and passion 2). I didn't go to college and become a social worker to do "nothing". I'm not working anymore (disability) but I miss it like crazy. I'm use to helping others with MI. I was a social worker for ten years. I haven't worked since 2012 and now I miss having a case load. I was supposed to help make a difference until I retired but bipolar got me. I started out in the welfare -to -work area. Then spent the last three in mental health. I knew people that worked at the mental health hospitals on a first name bases...took tours of hospitals. Now I'm on the opposite side of the table lol.
