When I left it was because I felt I didn&#39;t not having suffered from bipolar. In some ways I think I needed to see how far I&#39;ve travelled and in which direction since being here last. </p> <p>I found a couple of really good friends on here, but also a lot of people who I found just kept reminding me of how grim things can be and that can be a problem when you&#39;re trying to blast the black clouds away on the off chance that there might be some sunshine lurking behind them. There is, but it&#39;s not always as warming or brilliant as I would like it to be, nor as frequent, but that&#39;s British weather for you.</p> <p>And now, having dropped by I don&#39;t know what I feel other than profoundly sad with furrows in my brow and tear banking up trying to find a hole big enough to burst into the floods that are warranted. And they are warranted because such forums shouldn&#39;t be needed as no one should ever be so alone they have no other place to turn, no one in their lives to trust.</p> <p>I guess in that respect I always did belong here, but I can&#39;t stay as it&#39;s reminding me too much of really sad times which are best left behind me now. I only hope that everyone here finds good friends as I did. They made a huge difference to me so much so that for the most part I&#39;ve been doing ok. Not quite to the extent of eradicating deep lows from my life, but at least they don&#39;t seem quite so deep, quite so intense and don&#39;t seem to last quite so long as they used to. </p> <p>Onwards... just keep going... onwards. </p> <p>All best wishes to one and all on your journeys.<br /> May they all bring lovely new things for you to explore and end in a joyous, healthy, happy life. </p>
