I started getting a little more of my appetite back, but I am still not eating well. I have had two hours sleep in the last two days, and I looked in the mirror and wanted to cry. Then, I got angry, then I was just happy to be alive. Bipolar is not a fun roller coaster ride at all. I have been to numerous doctors and therapists. Been hospitalized seven times. Feel number eight coming fast. My husband is trying to understand, but even he don't understand. I don't even have a clue myself sometimes. I sure wouldn't expect others too. At least here, I know some of you know what I am going through. Right now, my mind is spinning so fast, I don't even know if I'm making sense or not. I just need to get it out. I don't want to blow for sure. I know I have dropped below 99 lbs, now. I can tell it in my clothes. I have to keep clothes of all sizes for my weight goes up and down as much as my mood swings. Only my weight stays down longer. I am seriously thinking about going back to the hospital again. I'm going to try and wait until the first of the year. I just hope I can hold off that long. I remember spending one Christmas in there. The beginning of this year, I spent my mom and dad's anniversary there. Seems like my worse episodes pick the worse times. Every time I look into the mirror, I feel worse. This is just the beginning of an episode. Please, if you get the chance, say a little prayer for me. God has kept me this far, and I want to continue to work for him. It's hard to bring others up when I'm a mess myself. Thanks in advance!!
