Hello All!
I'm hoping that if EVERYONE who reads this responds, we could have 10-30 people's ideas to help us all out. That would be GREAT. The question is: When you are in a very depressed or manic state, what do you do, other than meds, to try and pull yourself up or down to a more normal level. I know some people use meditations, others ue certain spiritual practices, or go out with a friend for a chocalte binge. What do you do that works, or helps even a little bit. Jot down as many ideas as you can, and we'll all benefit!! Thanks! Raeven

When I am very depressed, I call my Mom or my Granny, or just anyone I can to talk to me to make me happy. I also pray for healing in both states. When I am manic, I just go with the flow and clean my house or call friends.

Hi Sarah,
It was very kind of you to respond to the message board. When I do stay focued and intuned with my spirituality, it really does help. I think it's awful that you've had bipolar for all these years and it was just diagnosed today. Did you finally get meds to help out? I'm on disability (since 1994) from fibromyalgia, lupus, and bipolar. So I don't get out and really have no social life. From the Bipolar site I met an elderly man that is very sweet, but would like another person to E-mail back and forth with. If you're on aol there's IM's, but I'm not in the big directory forums where you can find people and chat. My E-mail is MistRaeven@aol.com I really hope you'll send me an -mail so we can chat. I hope you have a good weekend. I live near Chicago and it's actually supposed to be warm here this weekend. Take Care! Love,
Raeven
