bipolar chick  36  Female
Location: OAK RIDGE, TN  USA
My Bio
I''m a 34 yr old newly divorced mother (3 yr old son). I have my life remarkably together for all that I''ve been through. Most recently, my 2nd husband (son''s father) asked for a divorce & kicked me out after he changed his mind and decided that he just couldn''t live with a bipolar wife. I am very self-aware, I''ve heard from docs. And I manage my disorder better than most. Recently I''ve discovered how incredibly respondent my illness is to the amount and quality of my sleep, so I have to be very careful to get a good amount/quality of sleep every night, routinely. I''m mostly here as a "guiding light" to let others know that it really is possible to live a good life and achieve dreams, even with a bipolar diagnosis. It''s harder for us, but harder isn''t impossible!
