My client was first diagnosed with bipolar disorder at 18. Bouts of depression cycling with longer periods of manic episodes that resulted in a six-week hospital stay.
Fast forward to present day. My support and our work in therapy, together with the foundational pillars of: sleep, exercise, healthy eating, and a balanced schedule which includes 'alone time' and meditation, are what allows this client to live and thrive in the world (with a successful career, the raising of two wonderful teenagers, and the love of a husband who adores her).
Many would say that she is a perfect example of how mental health requires ongoing support; of how important it is to have the love of family and friends; and to not feel judged.
Mental health is vital for living a happy and productive life. Many times my client has described how difficult it is for her to think clearly, to feel optimistic, and to be productive when she is in the throws of low affect. What so many of us take for granted; what we find easy and simple, becomes painfully difficult for her.
It is important to remember that you are not alone; that you can get help; you can call on your tribe to help get you through the difficult moments that seem to last an eternity whilst building on your strengths and your ability to help yourself; to persevere, to find what works best; and to live disciplined to the pillars that reinforce what it means to be healthy.
You can share your story so that others do not feel alone; so that you are reminded that your words can help.
Sharing the wisdom and beauty of divine love with you...
Namaste!
