It has been just three months since I made this post and I have a much better outlook on my life. I am more in control now and feel more confident. I have been very compliant in my treatment and I think this is the number one contributor of my success. Some days are much more difficult than others and there is a lot to injest after being diagnosed with cyclothymia but I take each day as it comes and deal with things one at a time instead of trying to do everything all at once which has proved to be bad for me. The treatment is there and I believe that we each have to take that treatment and apply it as tough as it may be. I feel that as long as I keep doing what I'm supposed to do I am making myself a stronger person every day. As for my mistakes, I feel that with time I will be able to hopefully earn the trust of those I've hurt by keeping everyone in the loop about my treatment. I do understand that some people will never trust me again but as long as I make the effort I am doing what I need to do. So far so good!
