Grateful Post..

Happy Hump Day..

Today I am grateful..

That I can live, laugh and love..

For the air that I breathe..

That I am a blessed man..

For the miracles of modern medicine..

For my life changing surgery..

Today I am grateful for realizing that I can be happy without being manic.  I mentioned this to my shrink yesterday and he was amazed at that.  He said he wished he could teach that to his teenage patients.

Part of the problem with treating manic-depression is that many patients resist the mood balancing meds because it actually feels good to be manic.  Unfortunately, if you become manic, you can be sure that you will eventually plunge into depression.  Bob

Its great to be at hump day - sometimes they all run together. Tomorrow is promised to no one.  Standing and breathing is still a gift
