The After Party

The After Party

Well Christmas is over for another year! Some of us might have spent it celebrating with family and friends, some of us may have had a deeply sad expeience with loneliness and ill health.Nothing gets changed in one day, and we all need to find ways of helping ourselves and combatting our demons in the future.

I am a big fan of "talk" therapy - along with my medications it has been truly helpful in coming to term s with myself and even ridding myself of some behaviours which I had thought were part of myself. I recommend it to anyone who is planning to make an extra effort in the New Year.

But what I want to say is that I am relatively new to these forums,, and I am astounded at how much they have helped me, and I want to thank everyone of you for your advice and support. A New Year is a time for new beginnings, and let's hope we can all move forward together. In am 63 (I have had bi-polar since I was 15), and you think you know it all but there is always more to learn.

Thank you for welcoming you into your community,

Ellu
