My Christian faith edifies my soul in ways that help me keep my bipolar symptoms in check and under control. This is being demonstrated to me now. I am in a much better place than when I wrote about faith last March.
I am in a place of increasing bipolar depression following my recent twin peaks manic episode. It's a fight against what seems inevitable. After every manic episode I have had there has been a follow-on deep depression.
These post-mania depressive episodes are not simply periods of sadness, remorse, guilt, or low self esteem that pass after a short time. They are long (years) periods of all consuming depression that rock my core.
This blog is fulfilling a personal passion of mine: helping my fellow bipolar sufferor(s) strive to gain control over this disorder! My intent is to pass on relevant, useful content for creating wellness. Join me as I write about coping with my disorder, working through some life event that appears huge but is ultimately defeated, and staying hopeful.

Manic Twin Peaks
Well, I thought I was coming off mania when I posted back on June 19th. It turns out I had another manic run lasting about two weeks.
I thought I was coming off the last mania but it seems it was just the lull before another storm. I came crashing off this entire manic episode starting on July 4th. It was my worst Fourth of July ever.
