in the quiet of my mind

whispering and dancing
circling and chanting

snickering and pointing
poking and laughing

round and round
faster and faster

swirling and twirling
shouting and screaming

bashing and dashing
cut and run

run and scream
screaming mad


surrender

so i have recently realized that i am working through a bi polar switch. i am glad i am starting to recognize them so i can learn how better to deal with them. im noticing that they are happening about the same time of the year every year. end of winter early spring. up until now i have had trouble seeing it for what it was, cuz i been spending the rest of the year trying to fix myself and what i messed up during the switch, but now... now it can be different. i realized this one somewhere right before the usual freak out in which i quit a job or run off a friend. i was on the line of doing something irrational but i stopped. i stopped and took some meds..

thank you lord for allowing me to see this.

Good for you. You can handle this just always be sensitive in what you do. So you will notice it.

I have at least one very good friend who is bipolar. She manages it well, but has not always. I would stand up and be one of your biggest cheerleaders in that you know what is going on and you are managing things well. Good job, keep it up, and know that you are a very worthwhile person. Even without a label, we all mess up from time to time.

thank you.. i have not always managed it as well as i am now, myself. each time i seem to notice sooner and handle it just a bit better than the last, but i do have to really pay attention to myself. it really helps to have a husband that will not just freak out cuz i seem outta my head too. he knows what i am going through and is awesome.

It is so good that you recognize what is going on and taking steps to help yourself. I strongly believe my husband is bi polar, but he does not want to accept that it may be true. However, we have to put up with his very crazy behavior all the time. He'll go almost two weeks not talking to anyone, just eating and sleeping and being totally disagreeable. Then suddenly he wakes up one day ready to take on the world and does the most outlandish things. He also talks non stop. And I mean NON STOP for hours and hours. I would like to have him checked out but I don't know how to convince him (once I find him....he's good at disappearing for days at a time). Personally I am at my wits end.

oh honey. i am so sorry you are going through that. i am/was the same way. with the talking non-stop about nothing or even worse crazy things. i get so confused sometimes. even the disappearing. when i would disappear i just went to a friends house to hide out for a couple days. i would always let my hubby know where i was but no one else. i lost several jobs cuz of all the madness. its aweful for a family to have to go through that. my first husband left me because i was a too crazy for him to deal with.

it was easy for me to believe that i was bipolar. besides the fact that i felt stark raving mad i had grown up with my father being bipolar and not taking care of it or himself. he just self medicated with alcohol. not a good idea.

i have already said a little prayer for you and your family. i do hope he can get some help and you can have some rest..

I like the poem. It begins with "quiet" and gradually progresses with certain intensity. The explosion of madness in the end was inevitable. If you did not explain your situation about being bipolar, I would have thought the person in the poem was at his wit's end. He had to let go of his frustrations. You write well!happy


myLot reputation of 90/100. lovinlifemindless (1442)   ranked 302 out of 3,532 in me  2 years ago

you are not far from how i felt when i wrote this. i just didnt post the poem till after i figured out what was going on with me. writing is very important to me in many ways. thank you.


myLot reputation of 93/100. eileenleyva (2949)  2 years ago

happyI am glad you learned about your condition and understood yourself. Am gladder that you are doing something about it. You might be bipolar but the blood is of good stock. Otherwise you would have been knocked down already. You are a good spirit.winkcheering
