We have a healthy relationsship most of the time, but when I get depressed or manic- it is hard for him to respond in ways that don’t make me even worse.


Anyways, doing pretty good. I like the increased dosage in my lamictal. Did well on Seroquel (for a while), but think I might like lamictal better. Need something to sleep on, though- gotta ask the next time I’m going to my doc.


Finally some nice days

Have you ever felt rude for saying that?

I don’t think anyone thinks I’m rude, just feels that way. I know that even when I’m down I am happy to read when you are fine. But when I am fine and write it, it feels unfair- when so many struggle.


I guess I am just very prone to feeling guilty.

Guilty when depressed, guilty when not. Working on it, though.


I think it’s wonderful he has agreed to do this !!! Yes our partners often don’t know how to act when we struggle.

Please NEVER feel bad about posting a positive post and feeling good. I personally love reading about people doing well if I’m struggling because it reminds me things are going to get better. Keep it up
