The Journey

More Healing

This is a personal journey into healing bipolar, naturally.

This long journey started after realising I was in an emotional crisis. The first therapist and the first diagnoses in 2004 was manic depression.

This is a work in progress and more will be coming soon here…

The site is still very generic and the content is far from complete. However, I am here for anyone who finds this. So, if any of this makes sense to you, please do feel free to contact me.



Rather than writing a long single thread story I’m breaking the journey into pieces so you can take a peak at each separate part of the journey so far.
