I started to write so I could keep a track on my thoughts. This particular Lupus flare has turned my life on its head. Although I am pretty content with this enforced solitude, I have a constant dialogue going on within myself. So I thought I'd write it all down.

I hope you enjoy reading it when you can.

Yes, the comments were sad.

Quote:
You often hear of "nervous breakdowns" but social breakdown can be just as traumatic for sufferers of bipolar. Career disruption, relationship break-ups, even bankruptcy and homelessness can all be consequences. Suicide rates are also 15% higher among people with the disorder.
I wish that journalists would be more careful with this 15% number.
I spent a few nights researching this and could not find science for this.

The best source I could find said that 15% are due to untreated bipolar, but I don't know.
