“It never feels like it’s ok to stop, to rest. “ THIS! I have this guilty feeling of needing to keep up with everyone who is NOT going through an episode.
I needed to read this and I needed the reminder. I’ve been struggling but keep making the noise worse since I feel like I’m failing because it’s getting hard to swim. I’m going to work on a WRAP. Thanks for including the link.
Thank you for your honest response. You are not failing. You are brave and you are seeking community. That is GOOD. I am glad you are going to purchase a WRAP book. It is one of the best tools I have found for my own recovery and it has been saving my life. If you have any questions about it, please reach out. It is meant to be done with others. With you <3

Amy, this is amazing. You have such a gentle way with powerful words, words that can heal and transform. And your vulnerability amazes me. Thank you for opening your heart this way and sharing your journey with us. 💕
I feel the love. Thank you, Mike. Words about faith and Jesus don’t come out lightly for me. Talking about where my friend Jesus meets me, living with Bipolar, is really where I feel meant to write from, but it’s also the hardest.
