Pessimism is out...OPTI-misim is in....fuck that

i feel like this blog title should be an OPI nail color and nothing else haha.
well let me fill you bloggies in, the ones that actually read and are awesome (hint hint my dear friend A, who i could not live without). if you don't read, i don't really care anymore..

i had the most opportune time of being admitted into a health institution these last 8 days..boy lemme tell you, it was a blast in a glass! haha not really, but it was a much needed move and i'm glad my parents suggested i go. i've learned a lot; how to accept things about myself, how to let things go, how to flush out the bad things in my life in the most polite way possible, how to be patient, how to relieve stress in positive ways, and how to be a better listener and how to eat healthier! HOW did i learn all this in 8 days you say?? well when you are diagnosed with a scary sounding mood disorder, anything is possible. i will have this mood disorder for life, but i am learning to manage the outbreaks and will have to be medicated for life. i am grateful that the disorder i have is mixed and is not the most serious stage of bp. bp is the name of the mood disorder, i just don't feel comfortable typing or saying it out loud yet. i'm still a very private person, but i'm learning that in order to get better sometimes you have to talk about it.

other than that bomb of a disaster that's taken up a lot of time i have a lot of things to deal with still. do i want to be in school this semester still? do i want to work full time and get benefits? do i still want to move out in january? there's a lot of unknowns right now, but i'm really glad and grateful to have come to the root of some of the biggest emotional problems because deep down you have to take care of yourself first, and everything else comes second.

i love you all, and thanks for listening.

Sunshine follows every storm and breaks the dark of every night..

why hello there. b girl is back! i kind of checked out of life for a while, but no worries i am recovered and am very happy with the person i'm becoming. i am currently living at home with my parents, which i am really grateful for, and am taking online classes while working part time at a bank. slowly i am getting back into my normal life/routine.

i am so grateful for life right now. i have a wonderful family who cares about my well being so much, friends who are so understanding, and i'm really happy with where i'm at right now. i'm learning that good things come to those who wait, and am being very patient and trying to be better with my studies and work ethic.

this second chance at life is the best thing that's ever happened to me and i'm so glad that an intervention is exactly what i needed to get my life back on track. smiling ear to ear:))

xoxo
