I’d guess he’s around 40, give or take 5 to ten years. I’m not good at guessing ages.
Do you have a purpose and if so, what is it? |

My purpose is my family. That purpose is fraying at its edges as they grow up and move on and I’ve yet to discover a personal purpose that is solely me.

No, just one state to another and eventually back. It was 10 hours away and felt big though. I really needed that time to really have to figure out independence as an adult.

I hope just about where I am now--living next door to my mom who is still healthy and able to share our lives. It's not perfect but it does work.

I nearly always go mixed whether I start as depressed, manic or hypo. And I'm a very rapid cycler so many, many times although some are worse than others.

I enjoy the whole present thing right now because I have young nieces. I think it will change as they get older.
