crystals & bipolar disorder

[Guest guest]

That's an excellent way of putting it Candy!  Don't let the disease become you! 

That's the same viewpoint that I take towards it.  I've accepted the fact that

yes, I'm bipolar, and yes it will affect me and those around me sometimes.  But

it doesn't need to take over my life.  My doctor and I have always equated it to

living with diabetes; it's a disease that you have, that will be with you for

the rest of your life, but you don't need to stop living because of it!  You

just need to be gentle with yourself when it's affecting you alot, and enjoy

yourself as much as possible when you're doing well.

I've found that exercise and daily meditation help.  So does eating more fruits

and vegetables, and taking vitamin supplements, on top of seeing my doctor and

taking my pills (which are at fairly minimum levels because of everything else

I'm doing).  I've avoided being hospitalized thus far, and have been able to

keep myself quite level for the last year and a half, thankfully.  I carry jade,

rose quartz, and lapis lazuli with me daily, as well as wearing my amber and

blue moonstone rings daily.

The biggest thing is to have faith.  Doesn't matter what you have faith in,

doesn't matter what shape it takes, so long as you know that you have something

to grab ahold of and pull yourself up again when you do find yourself sitting in

a deep dark pit. 

Blessed Be,

Moonwater
