I’m a 46 year old man who’s been dealing with Bipolar my entire life. It wasn’t until 2013 that I was diagnosed and this blog is my story. As you’ll see there’s been many lapses in my posting but I’m going to try and get back with it. I’ve had a lot of trouble during my lapses but I continue to remain optimistic about my bipolar hence the title Optimistic Bipolar.

Day 119 "Uneventful But Good"
I slept well last night and was able to get up without any trouble. Today I felt good all day and didn't seem to have any medication side effects. Today was the best day on Abilify I've had to date. However, my dose goes from 2mg to 5 mg tomorrow so I may experience more side effects. In any event today is one of the best days I've had in months and I did nothing but mess around on the computer all day and watch television. I haven't felt like doing those activities all summer and today I was able to keep my attention focused on the television and computer without losing focus to depression. Maybe Abilify is the drug that's going to help stabilize my bipolar along with the Lithium. All I can do is remain optimistic by staying positive. Bipolar is a nasty illness and it feeds off your negativity.
