| 30 Day Blogging Challenge Prompt 19 ▼ I think I've always written in an attempt to calm the chaos in my mind. As a teenager, I had terrible mood swings. (I was diagnosed later with Bipolar 1.) During a manic period, I had a cyclone of thoughts furiously clashing. During a depressive state, I couldn't describe my feelings unless I wrote them. As a new mom, I had Post Partum Psychosis. I was terrified of the insane thoughts that plagued me. (I literally thought my daughter hated me.) I wrote in an attempt to understand the illogical notions that no one else understood. Older now, I have trouble verbally communicating with people. If I can't understand myself, how can anyone else? But writing is soothing and therapeutic. Don't get me wrong, it's a lot more fun now too! My writing may have begun as a last ditch effort to prove my sanity, but thankfully I enjoy it for other reasons now. Cheers. |

but seems to be okay today. I worry about my poor circulation, scrub my toes with a soft bristle brush, watch discoloration come and go. I probably need new arteries or veins but hey... "Heathcare" USA (enough said?). I may be better off trying something here in Thailand. But still... wish I lived in a country that had adequate patient based healthcare. Thailand and Taiwan mostly do, but I can't access it. First world systems like Europe, Canada and Australia do, but again, I can't access it.
