For the last few months,I have been suffering with manic episodes of
bi-polar.Talk about being un-balanced!I was hurricane BEV,and couldn`t get my
feet planted on the ground.I stayed abstinent through it by the Grace of God and
the recovery I worked so hard on.It was hard to trust myself during these
episodes,but I DID AND DO TRUST MY GOD;
My faith never wavered and I find myself getting back to being grounded once
more.With new insights.Being vulnerable is not a safe place for continuing my
recovery.I have chosen to put myself back into a safe place;Therapy.The more I
change,the healthier my life gets and has an overall effect on my
family(others).
Knowing my illness has profoundly affected my entire family,so does my
recovery.One of the most remarkable gifts recently/ my daughter who was very
estranged from me/that also suffered as a result of my illness.Is ready to heal
and be apart of therapy for herself and relationship with me.I know that
whatever baggage I hold onto,affects every relationship I choose.That TRUTH goes
for everyone.
For today...I am shaky,but I hold fast to GOD,give a voice to my life,And make
the choice to RECOVER.
just in case your wondering!
