I wish people would listen and learn, then they could accept that people such as yourselves are 'normal' as you said. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your experiences. <br /><br />ErinErin Cawoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02262428241597092912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193497799363588349.post-46411048454756704192011-04-12T10:53:10.524-07:002011-04-12T10:53:10.524-07:00Interesting blog.

I suffer from clinical depression that began shortly after my youngest daughter was born. my sister made me go to the doctor. Years later, my son was born and back to the dr I went. Turns out, with my family history of depression I need meds all the time. It just took the emotional toll of birth to make things really bad.Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912641441536207956noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8193497799363588349.post-56720862024093844802011-04-12T09:33:02.063-07:002011-04-12T09:33:02.063-07:00Thanks for sharing your personal experience with u...Thanks for sharing your personal experience with us. I'm glad to see you incorporating the writing blog into an explanation of Bi-polar and how it affects your life. I like the phrase you borrowed from Christopher Titus.

I was asked some questions by a doctor who considered me bi-polar, but I learned that I am an Empath...someone who picks up other's emotional 'stuff'. I've read a number of books on this and have also gone to some psychic professionals to help me out. A good book on the subject is 'Who's Stuff Is This?' by Yvonne Perry.
