It was the second hardest thing I've ever done (second to calling the crisis line leading to my admission to the hospital). Just try to write your feelings down. Especially when you're feeling overwhelmed. It will really help you put into perspective when those feelings are a product of bipolar, and when they are a reall feeling when you are stable. Just give it a try. You don't have to do anything you don't want to. Just write what you want to. No one has to see it but you. You don't have to share it unless you want to. Even a few sentences is a start. I'm no expert - God knows - I've even only tried it once, but lots of people have told me it's extremely beneficial. Love and hugs, Alicia.
