Hi, bobby! And hi to everyone else! First of all, I am not bipolar. But I wanted to support GeeLuv, & I like to read what you all have to say. I am probably schizoaffective, depressive type, although not officially diagnosed. I have "auditory hallucinations" (voices & various noises), & I get depressed sometimes. I really appreciate the atmosphere here. You are nice people & have helpful suggestions for each other. Thank you so very much for making me feel welcome! And I do feel at home here. I hope it's ok to say God bless you!

p.s. Also thank you Donna & GeeLuv!

I am so glad you love Josh Groban's voice. Do you know why it is so special.? I think I will turn it on now.
I never read Rene Descartes.I have forgotten most of my Latin, You have me curious. I read like Horace,Catullus,Plautus ,Seneca,Caesar,
Cicero and Virgil. I don't know if I skipped any. I went to the university of Penn and most of my classes were very small. I loved two teachers and took every class Dr. Palmer had to offer. The Plautus was a graduate course and I would get so anxious that I would have to take a nap before the class. One fellow was a genius and I was so in awe of him. He could sight read Latin and I found it hard, He would skip classes. Dr Palmer who might have been a genius got angry at him so fixed him one time by giving a test on material from only discussed in class which the guy didn't attend lol. I think Dr. Palmer was one of the youngest full Professors in the country. Dr McDermott(sp) was so sweet. He found it too painful for us to read the letters in exile by Cicero. He had a daughter Grace and he wanted her to communicate with Cicero lol and supposedly somebody's daughter in the middle ages. When I later visited Penn and saw Dr Palmer my legs started shaking. I couldn't to wait to tell him I saw a temple outside of Split that said something like don't pee on me or the Gods would get you. I had originally read it in one of the courses he gave. He had a wicked sense of humor.
I was obviously bipolar because when I graduated there were no jobs.
Love and kisses

Welcome again. As you will notice I'm not bipolar either one of my SOns and some of my other family is

Donna

yeah, and once again, I'm not exactly bipolar either...well, it's still being questioned, but ...yeah, well, I think you and others pretty much know my story now. Thanks for supporting me! I'm hoping I can be supportive for you too! If or when things calm down, I'll try posting more in our mutual threads...actually, i really owe an update to the B&B one ha!

Thank you GeeLuv, & thank you mymorgy (bobby) for being here!

my friend told me cat stevens really partied. she met him once and he gave her the greatest kiss but then her husband came behind her and cat stopped. supposedly he was out swimming and a big wave got him and he started drowning. he made a deal with God and said he would devote himself to religion if he lived. I had trouble getting into brian welch.

Yeah. Oh he was drowning? Makes me think more of Jonah than Joseph/Yusuf, but I guess he later developed more of a fondness for Joseph later. Interesting man, no doubt!

Trouble with Brian? Did you not like the music (I haven't actually even listened to any of his solo stuff) or was it his story? I found the bipolar reference late last night. It WAS in the book I read. He would feel a rush of energy and excitement and happiness when going onstage, but then it diminished to depression. He merely suspected bipolar but never got tested. I think if he's doing well on antidepressants, then maybe he's lower (?) on the spectrum if at all (kinda like me!)

Basically, in short, his story is about finding God and finally overcoming addiction as a result. But he found that trials are still always going to be there, but his faith helped him press on through it all. He has become a great role model for his daughter, in my opinion, who also had to come to terms with trials and learn that sometimes what's best for us isn't always easy, but we come out better for it.

I dunno. Perhaps it's a generational thing. This band Korn was very influential to me and my peers, so it's more relatable to me maybe.

No worries. It's all good!
