Since my last post about 9 months ago I’ve gone back to school. I’m going to the University of Washington in Tacoma and am looking forward to applying to the Creative Writing degree program.

My Bipolar Disorder seems to be agreeing with me at the moment. We recently added a chill pill to the mix and that settled my excessive anxiety nicely. I can actually function and do my homework. Before I started taking it everyday doing homework was a nightmare. So was in class work too for that matter.

The lesson: if I need extra help (like more medication or changing medication) I need to speak up and make my needs known.
