Shelly,
I'm so glad that you had a not so bad day.
And yes, taking the meds can help.
I don't listen to music much either. I don't know why. I find it annoying somehow.
It's ok to write a journal now. You don't have to worry about your parents finding it!!
Actually when I kept a journal I was probably weird. I never wrote anything that I would be worried about someone else reading. Sounds dumb maybe. I would either leave stuff out or give hints that only I knew what I was talking about -- hey I was young!!
Journalling is supposed to help with mood. I even saw a study that it can help with weight loss. ....probably other things too.
My prob is that I pick up a book to write in and then loose it eventually. So then I find an older book and pick up writing where I see clean pages...Or else I buy a brand new book.
Duh. Maybe I could journal on the computer. Oh yeah. I do that on-line. Here.
OK. Sorry to wonder/ramble around.
I think I am trying to figure out how to get myself to do journalling agin.

It's ok to be confused. You've been through a lot. Take your time. Be patient with yourself.
I think that some of us people with bipolar are kinder to others than we are to ourselves.
Believe in yourself. That's what kept me going. I believed that the effort was would be worth it.
