My god wouldn't life be so much easier if people came with warning labels? Can you imagine all of the situations you could have avoided? The arguments you could have skipped? I would need a digital label so that it could change with my moods. Though there are definitely a few qualities that are ever present...like impulse control....I mean if you really think about it, most of my issues in life spawn from my lack of impulse control. Someone once told me that for such an intelligent person I sure do make some illogical and impulsive choices. My problem is that I just do things because i want to without thinking them through...and then i spend forever after OVER thinking the fallout. This is where the joys of having both bipolar disorder and anxiety disorders is most evident. The manic part of me does things impulsively and then my anxiety takes over worrying about the outcome. Most days are better than some and as much as I hate the word, there are certain things that "trigger" my impulsive nature. That I think is the hardest thing about being in my life for friends and family. There is no way to know what my mindset is and so I think the perfect warning label for me if I had to choose would be Well I need to get ready for work so let me just say that i hope you will take a chance and just "proceed with caution" because mixed up in all the chaos there is real beauty and truth to be discovered. Have a great day friends. Until next time...
