It’s been so, so, so long since I’ve posted. I’m not sure were to begin. I’ve relocated for family support. I’ve also been mental health hospitalized twice (4weeks) and mental health 23 hour hold three times BUT I’m still here. I’m still alive. I've had a rocky axx road since moving last May. I "never" knew relocating to a different state could cause so much havoc. The biggest mistake I made was I change
one med once I moved (lith). I was out of control. I started running people off the interstate, getting out of my car in the middle of traffic walking up to other cars with a baseball bat and I got into a physical. I also got into a relationship with someone in jail that I knew growing up. I found out they were in jail and I initiated contact.

I'm very new, so we don't know each other. I'm glad you're alive too. Although it isn't something I believe is healthy, it must have been a little exciting to date someone in jail. I'm assuming the relationship is over?

Thanks for posting and please keep it up. You are amazing to still be alive just from moving to another state! Did you know that moving is one of the very highest stressers there is for us, right up there next to the death of a loved one?

Amazing one, stay with us and keep posting! Hang in there, as we all are doing, and be with us for support. Congrats on still being alive! Hey, same to me here.

I'm glad to see your post! I am sorry things were so rough for you for such a long time, Coco. Here you are now, though, sounding like you are finally on the upswing.
Hugs!

Hello,

Welcome and I'm glad to be back. Thank for the well wishes. Yes it has been very exciting dating someone in jail. (July 2013) The first thing was talk abt old times a little , then catch up on current date. I found out he had bipolar one that's another reason I contacted him. He opened up to me after I told him I had bipolar and it was why I lived back to our home state. (Nov 2013) He went to trial and was convicted for over a decade. He's still being processed to be sent to a penitentiary in our state. We are still together. We still write each other and talk on the phone. I would go visit him too. Right now he can not have visits until he's moved. There are only three people in my social circle that know abt us.

I'm glad that you are alive. I read your posts before I joined and wondered where you went. You use to post all the time, I miss that and am glad you are still alive.

Don't date someone in jail. And get back on your meds until you calm down.
