I had one this spring. I struggle with a
sleeping disorder, fatigue and weight
gain. During the window this spring, I
got up at 7:00am, ate three meals a day,
dieted and exercised. I had good energy.
It lasted six weeks or 42 days. I was
sooooooooo happy!
Now it's late summer, not typically an
'up' time for me like the spring was...
And i'm getting another window! This one
is just two weeks old. It doesn't feel as
strong as the spring, so it will propbably
burn out quicker. We'll see.
I read somewhere that windows of good
health just get more and more frequent and
longer and longer, until sickness
evaporates. Has anyone else read this?
At this rate, I will get three months
minimum of good health out of this year.
Better than nothing. Onwards and
upwards!
Does anyone else experience windows!
What are yours like!
Do you have trouble convincing your doctor
you ever felt bad when you're in a
window?
Thanks,
jane.

Hi Jane Posted: 10-12-05 07:17am
I've spoken with you before on bipolar
aware. I do have windows of good health
but unforunately my general health is
really poor right now (unrelated to
bipolar). I've been stable for going on
two years now and that's the longest i've
been well for in over a decade.
How are you doing? I hope you're well.

Hi writer_girl,
sorry to hear your general health is poor
but happy to hear your bipolar has been
stable for two years. My bipolar has
been stable for five years tho this last
year has been pretty flaky.
Currently, i'm so excited and happy,
because i'm trying to sell a condo I
bought four months ago (heart broken over
that) but after waiting for my real estate
agent to return from abroad, and then over
the long weekend, she finally contacted
me!
She e-mailed me and she assumes I am
selling because of the hike in condo fees.
It's nice she didn't condemn me for bad
budgeting, which it actually partly is due
to. She said she doesn't 'list'
properties, but will contact the sales
agent for the building who does this
evening and get back to me tomorrow.
Oh, i'm so happy to get some movement on
this thing! Waiting is so hard! It's
the anxiety, I guess.
