I am starting this blog as a place to talk about my life as a mentally ill person. Specifically a bipolar one.
About how it stomps through my everyday life, knocking shit over and ruining lots of things.
About how some days I can be pretty cool about it.
About how a lot of days I can't.
I also want to write about other things because I am not just my disorder.
I am a writer, a musician (learning), a soon to be wife, an avid animal lover, a reader; I am many things but above all I am a human being.
I am starting this because I want people to know what it's like to live with this but to also know that people who struggle are also people. We feel, we breathe, we laugh, we love deeply.
See past my illness.
See me.
