Loon-A-TiK Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 I wanted to get this out in writing, so all of you can see it and help me stick to it- This comes from a reply Navy gave me to one of my other posts, and she pointed out that I haven't been stable... So, my pledge is that stability will enter my life, one way or the other. I will stay on my medications and actually give them a chance. I will stay in my apartment and not move. I will not let my bedroom door be a revolving door- I'll stick with one boyfriend and if he's not for me, I'll move on. I mean that. Even when I'm having a BP day, I'll go to work. I'll stay at a job and have work, even if it is stupid work. So all of you see it and can't let me back out, and can poke me with your positive encouragement when I seem to be backsliding, here it is!

chinacat Posted June 8, 2006 Share Posted June 8, 2006 Loon, baby, you are brave and smart and courageous and I know you can do this. Those are really real goals, and will help you cope with the ups and downs. I think sometimes we (BP folks) are a bit self-endulgent ("Oh, jesus I cannot work today, I 'm too bummed--I'm too up --I don't know where I am") I know I am--I will use my MI as an excuse at the drop of a hat. (and my back, too, now--I am the Queen of excuses--) So--good for you, and we will be right on your ass, baby--and you be on ours!! love, china Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

december_brigette Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 Hi Loon, I dont use my MI as a secret weapon or anything like that. Im open about it. and i have the concentration of nothing. review my past activity at this place for proof. Its wonderful if you are able to work - even part time. That would be great. It would also be great to work somewhere you are appreciated and get along with the other workers.....it makes for a harmonious day!! love, december Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

betcsu Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 hey loon, ive been listening to this song all afternoon and found myself thinking of you. i hope you dont mind if i share the lyrics with you. Unwritten Artist:Natasha Bedingfield I am unwritten, Can't read my mind I'm undefined I'm just beginning The pen's in my hand Ending unplanned I break tradition Sometimes my tries Are outside the lines We've been conditioned To not make mistakes But I can't live that way Staring at the blank page before you Open up the dirty window Let the sun illuminate the words That you could not find Reaching for something in the distance So close you can almost taste it Release your INNER VISIONS Feel the rain on your skin No one else can feel it for you Only you can let it in No one else, no one else Can speak the words on your lips drench yourself in words unspoken Live your life with arms wide open Today is where your book begins The rest is still unwritten Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
