For the last couple of years, I have been going through some stuff where it has been suspected I have been bipolar or at least possessing a cyclothymic personality disorder. Up until last year when I decided I had had enough, I was on medication for it. Yesterday I went to my psychiatrist for the first time in two years and he decided that I wasn't bipolar I was just eccentric! I said I was too poor to be eccentric so at this point of my life I am just strange. LOLThe funny thing is that part of what has led to this diagnosis is a very traumatic experience in my life: the allergy that led to me losing my birds, my babies. Because I was put on prednisone. If I was bipolar I would have had a manic episode on that drug and I didn't.The saying that every cloud has a silver lining is true. We just don't always see it at first. Because of that event and some other things that happened, I took steps to take more control of my life. I got off all medications. I started walking, exercising and eating properly. I am working harder on my writing. I am working, in my own way, to make my dreams come true.I am being true to myself. And I don't always do things like everyone else but that's the fun of it all. It may not work either but at least I'm trying. I am doing my best to enjoy life, the life I have. I try to avoid negativity and negative people. I have enough of that in my life.Yes I have big dreams and I am aiming high. I might fall short but I am going to do my best to have fun on the trip up there. My health isn't always the best and although things are going well now, I know that that may change tomorrow. But that doesn't matter.Because I believe that no matter how bleak your life seems, there is always something to be thankful for, to be happy about. Don't you think? What's your silver lining?Karen MagillAuthor of The Bond, A Paranormal Love Story and the soon to be released
