I have been reflecting a lot about my life and my mistakes. I think our bipolar really interferes with our functioning big time and gets us into holes that we spend our life trying to get out of but then get into new ones. It ain't easy.
It is actually herculean. You have to start thinking what you have accomplished.
I am always think what I have f@#ked up at and never what I have done positively.
I always think of the disasters I have come so close to. I don't think I am copping out. You have to be kinder to yourself and think of all the things you have done when you are functioning.You have to and pat yourself on the back.
