My day improved by going to Adoration and lighting two candles and spending the afternoon in deep prayer. Also it was a beautiful cool, spring-like afternoon. I spent a lot of the time outside. Went to my Legion of Mary meeting, and cried during the Rosary prayers, and a nice man put his hand on mine., It was very emotional, but I got through it. I didn't get an assignment to do a visit this Sunday, but I will be hosting a table outside church to promote the Legion to see if we can get some more members. Attendance is pretty good though, we are one of the best in the state. I ended up coming home and spending the evening with "him" and we got to be together, which is something I haven't had in quite some time - it really put my head together.

I've been thinking of my life and what I go through. I am Bipolar 1 but I was also labeled schizophrenic at one of my hospitalzations. My mania is off the wall crazy. It's really bad, you guys know, you've seen how it can get. But no matter what I've been through, I have a really nice place, nice things, an amazing working car, my mom and dad, lots of friends, and some really great men in my life. There hasn't been one time where I couldn't pick up the phone and call someone if I needed to. It's just really hard sometimes when the doubt, pain, frustration just implodes in my spirit. It's so hard being bipolar, you guys don't know how brave you are to survive so much.

Thanks so much @June08 - like @Blueberrybook said, you are a miracle worker to be able to teach and manage the bipolar. Just like @Crazy Hitch is doing (I bet your nails look gorgeous), you guys are superwomen! @Blue_Bird - I am so glad I inspired you! I think I am going to rewatch John Wick 4 before I go see Ballerina. I might go Saturday the way things are going now. I hope you enjoy Lilo and Stitch! @Nammu - I bet your painting is so beautiful, we are our own worst critics sometimes. When you get the frame you have to show us!

Hope everyone is having a good night tonight. It will be the first night in a while that I won't be crying myself to sleep. Bipolar is so hard.
