  1. So glad you had that "speed bump"! My wife has been instrumental in my treatment. I told her right from the outset that I was bipolar. When I first moved back to Buffalo, I had no health insurance and was off my meds for a week. At one point, she said the look in my eyes was a look she had not seen before or had not seen since. I was able to get Erie County temporary prescription coverage, got meds, and we were off and running. With Jen (my wife), all I have to do is tell her that I feel like I'm having a bipolar moment, and she stops what she's doing, asks me questions on how I'm feeling, and encourages me to message my PA or therapist. Then she keeps a close eye on me to see if I'm tracking in the right direction. I'm glad you have not been back to that dark place. Like you said, it's not always easy.
  2. I was on the deck of the Golden Gate Bridge in 2012, ready to jump. I was rapid cycling from my Bipolar, and my doctor had screwed up my meds. I had a friend who I was talking with throughout the day call me while I was on the bridge, and she said go to the Psych ER one more time. If it doesn't work, you have my permission to jump. I went to the ER, and in California where I was living at the time, they immediately gave me a prescription for meds. I went and got those filled right away, had a come to Jesus meeting with my doctor to straighten out my meds. I reconnected with my now wife 3 months later, moved to Buffalo, and my Bipolar has been in remission for over 10 years. You're so right in saying mental illness is no joke.

  5. My wife is definitely a Swiftie over 50, and listens to the Kelce Brothers podcast weekly. HOWEVER, when Bishop hit Travis, she yelled "Take that you bum"!
