Stigma

So, something exciting happened to me yesterday...

I was approached (on Twitter) by a wonderful soul who asked if I would be interested in sharing an essay about my personal experiences living with bipolar disorder. The group (if you wish to follow on Twitter, and you probably should!) is @stigmafighters and they are doing some amazing things!

Please give them a follow!

And thank you for reading... You have helped me to make it this far. Thank you.

And I feel amazing!!! However, this awful sleep

No worries!

All that worry for nothing! Okay, so I didn't do too hot on my final exam. 62% is not ideal. However, my presentation on bipolar II disorder went really well... I think. Considering I worked my butt off on it and was very prepared. My nerves go ahold of me while actually recording myself presenting my power point, but I think it went really well. I enjoyed giving it. Here's the link to my presentation below... Please be kind. I was nervous and some things were over my head! Haha! http://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/coQbfafKoR Also, I met with my personal trainer today... and... the verdict is in. I LOVE HER! She's so nice! Not only is she beautiful on the outside, she's also beautiful on the inside! She pushed without being pushy and she encouraged and always made me feel good about myself throughout our whole hour long workout. I'm so happy and I think the main trainer did a good job of pairing us up! I love my gym and I love my trainer. I'm actually
