@jeanne-mayell 🙏🏻💜🪽🙌🪽💜🙏🏻 Asking AA Raphael to attend and guide his care and healing... that all hands that touch him be Healing, Loving Hands and I also ask that your sweet cousin be given the strength, care and support she needs as she stands by him " in sickness and in health" ...and so it is.
Thank you ALL @freya, @bluebelle, @journeywithme2, @earthngel, @elaineG for sending healing to my cousin. My brother is going to visit them Sunday, and pray for him to be peaceful and heal in whatever way is best for them.
Also sending prayers for you. This is hard. I know you will be there for them~and we will be here for you.
Hi all, thanks in advance. I am not a serious case here, but I am curious if there are high level empaths here who also have bipolar issues. I am pretty well controlled on meds, but my psychiatrist thinks I should get into therapy too. It's hard to determine if my ability to understand my own disease is getting in the way of my own wellbeing if that makes sense. I am attracting guys that seem to get obsessed with me quickly. Dealing with a low key stalker now and another guy tried to kill himself after I broke up with him. I honestly think therapy is a waste of time in my case. But I would just like to know if someone is or has dealt with this ❤️ blessed combo of mental qualities? 😃
Yes, bipolar here. Also well managed. The bipo is beside the point for me. It is like having my mom's green eyes, an inherited trait.
That being said, therapy can be a wonderful tool of self discovery for anyone who chooses to use it. The more I learned in therapy about how to love and accept myself, the more I attracted healthy relationships and situations. I also really loved my therapist, who has passed, a deep soul love. I think about all the things she taught me and how she helped me. I believe she is pulling for me on the other side.
As an empath I feel everything deeply and I used to view it as a fault. The stigma of bipolar bothered me but now I see all is a window, not a door like most have, but gives a way in nonetheless.
@jovesta Thank you and @ghandigirl for sharing your perspective on a difficult diagnosis. You are helping people when you do. I think many would like to hear what people know about treating this diagnosis, and what the condition is like to live with.
I am a happy ambassador for those with bipolar disease. I inherited it from my Mom, Granddad, and probably even further back. I don't like it when people make us out to be monsters. I tend to call my neurodivergent brain my superpower, along with my off-and-on clairvoyance all-around high-level empath nature. 😀 Yes, I tend to get depressed. Yes, I can become a "whirling dirvish" as my Mom used to say. But the focus that I can achieve when manic is incredible. It is all about recognition of symptoms as I did last night. Facing them head-on. Not because I am broken, but because I am human. People, it is okay to ask for help.😘
My second-cousin-once-removed (daughter of a first cousin) is in late stages of kidney failure and now has pneumonia and sepsis. Needless to say, she is likely on her way to the next dimension. Her name is Sarah and she lives in the Ft. Lauderdale area. She is 45 years old and has two children- a girl aged 17 and a very autistic boy aged 11. Her husband is caring for the children but he is not the most responsible person.
Please send prayers for her family-- the children especially. Sarah has two siblings. Her parents are 70-ish. This is going to hit everybody hard. My cousin (Sarah's dad) lost two siblings in 2020- very suddenly- when they were in their early 60's. Now this.
Thank you for any help to ease Sarah's passing (if that is indeed where she's headed) and help her family with their grief and adjustment.
Actually Sarah is my first cousin once removed-- not that it matters.
