Give them to God, and tend to your wounds.
@lowtide, It was an aha! moment for me too. @ghandigirl, I've copied your words and posted them on my bulletin board. So much wisdom in your post. Thank you.
I'm really happy that my words resonated with you.
Today was a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day, and I was unbelievably depressed. Just wretched.
Only now do I realize this advice is also meant for me, and that is because you both reminded me.
Thank you.
These helped a lot too:
"Forgiveness? Does not mean you have to allow them space in your life again. It means not holding that harm and hurt as part of your energy anymore. "
"... there is no shame in asking for help when you need it. We must learn to receive as well as to give.."
I know why you felt compelled to write this, because G-d knew that I really needed to hear it. Instead of writing here for support, I weakened myself with inconsolable grief the entire day.. Bipolar Depression is a burden. I was too ashamed to reach out today. This is also a very good reminder.
@ghandigirl my son in law has bipolar. It’s hard. Please know that you are loved and cared for. You are precious and vital. We need your spirit and light. This is what I always tell him. The most tender, beautiful souls are the ones who understand the struggle. Love to you friend. Peace be with you always. ❤️
@ghandigirl hugs My best friend from high school is bi-polar... she is a wonderful person.. just as you are.

@ghandigirl. I am also bipolar. If you need any guidance or positive talk, I am here! I have been under control for years!
Add me to the club. It's a struggle always but years of being looked at sideways have made me realize bp people are special in a lot of very good ways. Society and science tend to focus on only the negative(s) of the disorder. I will never again apologize for being who and how I am. I don't know your whole story, ghandigirl, but judging from your posts, you are intelligent and empathetic and forgiving. Reach out if you need to because there's no shame in it at all.
@ghandigirl, I think there are quite a few BiPolars on this forum incl me;-) Perhaps it is our brain makeup that makes us feel so much and see past the misty curtains of time. Know that you do not have to stand alone. Forgive yourself for whatever you blame yourself. It is okay to feel down sometimes as long as you know that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Big, virtual hug ❤️ and take all the cuddles your little furries can give you. ❤️
I see my bipolar-dom as a gift. I can feel more clearly and use the effects to my advantage, although my meds keep it pretty even keel. I have recently discovered a slight uptick in my telepathic ability with my kids. They think of a number and usually the first time around I will get it right. But then I always say quit while we are ahead. But it's usually when I am not focusing on the number game that it just comes to me. Super flash instantly. Cool huh?
And the winner is...the Puppy Bowl. At least at our house. My college attending daughter came home in the middle of the Puppy Bowl and has since been transfixed, filled with lots of warm fuzzies.
When you are lawyer and have a Zoom court appearance before a judge and can't get rid of that silly cat filter...
Imagine what the impeachment hearing would be like with random filters.

Happy Valentine's day, everyone! I'd like to dedicate this song to @jeanne-mayell: ? The Beatles, live on the Ed Sullivan Show https://youtu.be/jenWdylTtzs
@unk-p Thank you, very fun to relive. They were babies! Lennon was the oldest at 24.
@lovendures, the cat zoom court case was beyond belief.
Happy Valentine's Day Intuitive family!
Think of this day as one overflowing with love. Love for your neighbor, your animals, your friends and family. Love that heals and lifts, holds and comforts. Love for everything that lives and breathes. Love that nurtures and fills. Love for yourself, There are many ways you can still show love with the time that remains in this beautiful day. ❤️ With time that remains in any moment of any day.
Perhaps do something for our Mother Earth which is kind and loving.
Reach out to someone you haven't spoken with in awhile, share your gift of friendship, do a random act of kindness.
This is a day to be mindful and embrace love.
The Greeks have a variety of different words for the many different forms of love that exist. Find one which speaks to you and welcome it to be apart of the remainder of your day.
Agape- love of humanity- unconditional love
Philia- Being part of a community or friendship love
Storge- family love or close relations
Eros- Romantic love
Pragma- enduring love, being there
Ludus- exciting/playful love
Philautia- love of self, being kind to self
*I guess this is a Philia love message.
Ok, that was a GREAT way to end Valentine's Day!
It will be playing in my head for the rest of the night. Thank you Unk-p.
