So it seems as if I am overdue for a blog post, but truthfully I am not sure what to write. I have just recently emerged from the month-long, dark tunnel of the worst bipolar episode I have ever experienced. Were this a year or so ago, I would probably post all the gory details, but that just doesn't feel right anymore.
I no longer want to post every little detail of my life to this blog. I have real-life friends now--very good, dear, precious ones--and that may be part of it, but I also believe that as we grow up we come to have more of a need for privacy. Or not. Could be that I just don't know what I'm talking about.
School is going as well as I could ask for given current circumstances. I cannot say I am doing what I consider well, but I am pulling low As and Bs instead of Bs and Cs, so that is something. I have three really good school friends, my roommates, and three more friends, so I consider myself well set in that department.
About chronic pain: Prior to the aforementioned bipolar episode, I was completing a pain management routine that took approximately an hour and a half almost every day. For a variety of reasons, the episode made that so difficult that I just stopped. I do plan to get back into that over Spring break--pray for me that I can!
If you so happen to want the gory details (and fair warning: they are not pleasant) of my episode, let me know, and I can tell you privately via email or something like that.
In sum total, coming out of last month, I am glad to be alive. That is all.

About Me
- free_to_dream
- I am a bipolar, Jewish young adult (had my Hebrew birthday, the one I count, and turned 23 this past January) who also suffers from Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. I love life and I live for my best friends: they are my purpose and my reason for trying so hard. I remain passionately devoted to those I love; I will not let my disorders make me totally self-centered. I like to read, write, and sew. My Rabbinical school plans did not work out, and I am now hoping to go into the field of Early Childhood Education. Please note: I am currently maintaining only Carried in His Hands. Enjoy!
I've missed you and wondered how you were. Continue to pray for you and for our Rheann. Julia Nalle
ReplyDeleteSo glad you are back and doing well. Thank you for staying here. Don't need the gory details. Praising God you have real friends for these time some times our own emotions trick us about reality and friends we can trust are the voice of hope and reason. Praying for healing for your pain as well! God bless!
