Welcome to Me

Well I'm two weeks out of the old psych ward and hopefully on the way to rehabilatation.  I saw my psychiatrist today and talked about all the things I had done wrong during my manic phase and they weren't pretty looking back at it.  Things like speeding, spending outlandish amounts of money and buying things that I could never afford through financing.  I decided to write this little diary for myself mainly but if someone else gets something out of it that is fine too.  I have had blogs in the past about my Bipolar but I have always deleted them when I get what I like to call "sane".  I will be writing on my own condition, history and topics related to bipolar disorder or the more romantic manic depression as it used to be called.  

I'm writing the blog anonymously.  My name is not really Harold Krazzy but I will tell you that I live in Australia.  I hope some of this will help others cause this is usually a form of therapy for me.  Onward we go.

A little bit about me.  I like technology, I like supporting my local community as well as anything Australian made or owned, I have a great family who I cherish and who have helped me through the tough times.  I was born in October which is why the blog is called the Unbalcanced Libran - I'm Bipolar and am a Libran.  Just thought it was a light hearted take on my condition.

To give you a little of my history.  My episodes started happening when I was 15.  I've had an average of one manic episode a year.  I am 20 now.

So hopefully we are acquainted now.  I'm sure we will stay in touch.  I haven't got much else to do with my time for the moment - I am very packed full of medication and my concentration is bad.  Hopefully the posts get larger as I go along and my medication is reduced.  Don't be suprised if there is more than one post a day.

Thanks for reading - even if it is just me.
