Writer's Block: Life Changes & Kazoo Voice

[Error: unknown template qotd]I am absolutely most proud of how I've changed my life to be able to include bipolar II. I think I've been very rational, spend as little time as possible bemoaning my condition, know exactly when to call support networks, am on a good drug schedule and am on top of taking them. I even have a variable schedule for my sleep medication depending on whether or not I'm on a "manic" or "depressive" cycle.

I am not afraid to call my psychiatrist and tell him I need different drugs. I do not think it is my fault, or that I'm just being melodramatic. I'm serious about myself. I am very honest with all of my professors about the ins and outs of my personal condition, and what I need from them because of it.

I've learned how I respond to triggers, I know the ins and outs of all the drugs I'm taking, I respect what I can and can not do.

I've come a very long way in the last year. I'm proud of it.

FUCK.  My voice sounds like a kazoo.  I have to audition for a solo today.  More importantly, my voice needs to be in top form if I need to even be able to match how beautiful Margaret sounds.  I'm gonna cry.

Also, I have a shitload of work to do in the next two weeks.  I should be doing it instead of writing this.

kbye.
