Bipolar disorder? Good news. My mood is stable today This means the following: <\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n 1. I got up and started doing what I needed to do for the day. It wasn’t like I was walking through mud.<\/span><\/p>\n 2. I didn’t make a big list of all I have to do in life and then get upset because I can’t do it all today. I take today for today and do what I can.<\/span><\/p>\n 3. I started my day with a coaching client. It’s a good way for me to get on schedule immediately as I can’t be wishy washy about the time I start working.<\/span><\/p>\n 4. I’m not having a running conversation in my head that sounds like two people discussing my life and telling me what’s wrong!<\/span><\/p>\n 5. I’m not in a euphoric hypomanic episode. This means the ideas will be regular and not overwhelming. It also means that I won’t go to my favorite store and just start shopping for fun. That’s what the picture represents. It’s not fun when you see the price tag!<\/span><\/p>\n Yay, A stable day. It’s the only way to live. I use my Health Cards daily to keep my mood swings from going too far. You can do the same!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Julie<\/span><\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Bipolar disorder? Good news.
