I could barely see your last paragraph. It seems to be in white font on a white background. It was totally invisible in your original post, but I can faintly see it above in the reply form. Correction: Faintly see it in the reply form during the editing mode. Once submitted it is invisible again. By the way, you can write as many paragraphs as you like.  We must all sometimes get the bad stuff out. |
 Thanks, Soupe.
I had some kind of weird formatting issue with that last paragraph. I'm sorry.
YES! My thought about bipolar disorder is that there are pronounced cycles within the cycles, if that makes sense. Since I was a very young child, as far back as my memory goes, my mood was strongly affected by the light changes during the day. I remember once, I was 8 years old,..my mother asked me what the weather was like outside (I had just come home from school). I told her it was a "beautiful day." My mom was mentally ill and her behavior was often erratic. She looked out of the window, saw it was raining, and became extremely angry at me. She said that NO it was not a beautiful day! it was a cold, rainy day! But to me, the most beautiful days were ones in which there was as
little light change as possible. A rainy day is close to darkness.
