Bipolar Check-in #80

Hi all,


It has been some time since we saw each other here last time, and a new avatar as well.


My disorder is in remission! That means that I am almost fine. Some days are good, but with some black days in between.

Yesterday evening I got miserable over a small trifle, but the topic was important to me. I showed somebody an old family picture, and they didn't say something about that it was beautiful. (This picture is for me a picture of love in the family). Many things can happen in one's life, inside and outside family, but to remember some of the love one was brought up with is so important for the continued growing in the here and now.


I have felt depressed for the rest of the evening yesterday and all day long today. Far out in the day I was able to make some food and eat some tomatoes. That calmed me a bit, so I was able to think in CBT terms. I think I understand all the facets of the problem. I think it is over for this time, but I need to work on it as a vulnerability, so I can master similar "things" next time and prevent a setback.

I send my best wishes to you all!
