I know it would be very difficult, but I want to publish my blog. One of the problems with that is that its never done. But I have a depressive episode, a manic episode, a hospitalization, and hallucinations written about. What do you think? Apparently, there's a format you have to follow when submitting so it would be some work, but you don't have to submit the entire work, either, just what you think is best.

This is is an older, but favorite post of mine:

Blogger is a good format. My blog is almost never done. I'll write when I'm manic and quit when I'm depressed. I really like the name too. Very clever play on words "halLUCIDations".

Thank you.

It is more verbose when manic. In fact, when I was manic, I just copied my posts from here. They were all over the place and didn't make much sense.

As long as it makes (some) sense to you and it's therapeutic for you, who cares if other people like it? I like to journal and it helps me try to organize my thoughts and feelings. It doesn't always work, LOL, but it makes me feel better.

If you want, you could check out mine (see my signature below) and see what a free blog looks like; I don't pay for my themes, I just use what's there on Wordpress and get creative with pictures, color, and of course, writing.

But if you want something like the pros have, you may want to visit the big blogs like Bipolar Burble---Natasha Tracy writes it and she has a HUGE following.

I use wordpress too, its a great blogging tool. It was a little overwhelming to figure out at first, but once you get the hang of it, its very useful.
