What triggers a relapse? Every one is different. For me, a lack of deep sleep will trigger and almost immediate reaction. If I’m feeling ungrateful
The beatitudes of Jesus give us the first four phases of living with difficult disease or trauma in our lives. I was surprised by this
The Lord loves you. He is with you. He is for you. He’s on your side. He has a great plan and future for your life. In spite of how you might feel or what others might tell you, you are ofgreat value to Him. He has heard each of your tears as liquid prayers to Him. His promise to you is that He will work all things out together for your good. May He bring you His peace in the midst of your situation this very day.
Easter teaches us that we are not alone. When I was first diagnosed with bipolar depression I felt alone. My religious faith taught God was
When you and I connect with one another, we empower each other to live well in spite of any possible daily battles with our disorder. Individually, no one of us has all the answers.

My friend, if you find yourself in a dark and painful point in your journey of this life, please know this: the Lord WILL take this and make it work together for your good. You are not suffering in vain. There is purpose in it. There is a blessing in it. He is for you. He loves you. You are not alone. As deep as your pain goes, joy will be high when He begins to redeem your pain. And please know this, you are NOT “less-than”. You are not broken merchandise. In fact, it is at your point of brokenness that you become the most usable for His work in your life and in His Kingdom. This is about redemption. The Lord is working things together for your good even in the darkest parts of the valley you are going through. And in the midst of the suffering and pain, there are gifts – precious gifts – that you can’t even imagine!
ganar, este "viaje del bienestar" no es un viaje de perfección. Es un viaje de progreso imperfecto. Para hacer este viaje, tú y yo debemos estar dispuestos a aceptar el hecho de que nunca vamos a ser perfectos. Nadie es perfecto. La recuperación, que yo defino como retomar la propia vida de una forma nueva, se construye sobre fracasos de los que aprendemos, nos levantamos y seguimos avanzando. Avergonzarnos a nosotros mismos y creer que un fracaso nos convierte en unos completos fracasados es simplemente una mentira salida directamente de las fosas del infierno. Todo el mundo fracasa. Todo el mundo se queda corto. ¿Cuál es la diferencia entre los que deciden rendirse y creer la mentira de que son unos completos fracasados y los que tienen éxito? Es sencillo: entender que avanzar es un progreso imperfecto frente a la perfección.
