BP and Arguments Sneak Preview!

Hey, y'all--

Sorry I haven't written for awhile, but I've been dealing with a serious health issue (will probably tell you about it in next post, but have an abdominal CT scan today and don't know much yet).

So how about if I make it up to you by giving you a sneak preview of my next article for the bipolarcentral.com website?! Here's a little bit of it, just to whet your appetite:

BP and Arguments (between BP survivor and supporter)
...Instead of having to resolve an argument, you can prevent one from ever starting by reminding yourself that this "bad mood," or emotional low, is just a bi-product of your BP. At its worst, it may even be stemming from a BP depressive episode; eiter way, it is not a mirror of your true emotions. If you can just let go for now and wait until you're on the upswing again, you will realize that the issue you had wanted to fight about was: a) never there to begin with; b) exaggerated by your emotional state of mind; c) not worth fighting about; or d) resolved on its own.

Just for a ha-ha--saw a T-shirt advertisement on the internet the other day that said, "Hey, I have a brain disorder--what's your excuse?" LOL

Remember that God loves you, and so do I.
