Slowly I’m getting stronger, and the PTSD fading. Yesterday I spent the day at home. I was bored but also unable to really focus on some complicated tasks that need doing. I wanted to socialise but also couldn’t be bothered. I was a bit lost and ended up in bed at 7.30 pm.

This morning I feel brighter and more motivated. So far I have had no reaction to slightly reducing my Lithium dose four days ago. May it continue. I think I am finally coming out of the trauma rut I have been in all year, and no signs of bipolar either! It even crossed my mind to start looking for a p/t job soon. It is indescribable looking down the barrel of freedom for what really is the first time in my life. To top it off my energy levels are improving too, and pain levels down. Now I need a plan and a path forwards.
