Adventures of a JungleTart You are welcome to visit my blog. My pets are the 'Jungle,' I am the 'Tart.'
My blog is my everyday experiences with bipolar disorder. I have been blogging since 2006.
Sometimes my blog is just discussion of my day to day life. My blog is my attempt to blog anonymously as a bipolar and get out what I am feeling.
I sometimes discuss meds that I am on, and side-effects, and I am all about having a kind and loving environment on my blog. I am grateful for kind, uplifting comments, especially, on my blog.
I also have links to my 'Good Stuff' blog, that includes fun stuff from my life. I have also been blogging there since 2006.
I live in the United States. I am happily married and love my pets, which are two Pugs and a Siamese cat.
At the time of this writing, (9-26-09), I am working at a Drop-In Center and have just joined NAMI.
I recently participated in the 'In Our Own Voice' program by NAMI, which teach mental health consumers (one of the new 'lingo' words for people who use mental health services) to tell their stories, literally in 'their own voice.'
I have joined this mental health ring before and never took the ringsurf insignia off. I recently clicked on the insignia and found out I had to 'reapply,' so here I am. I hope this answers, or is the 'Site Description' that was looked for.:)
Sincerely,
'Tart
My name is Meg and I am raising a child with Early Onset Bipolar Disorder. This blog is my story where I chronicle the ups and downs of my life raising a child with bipolar disorder. I tell about our daily lives as well as the medicines we use, therapies we use, issues with schools, special education and learning disabilities and some unrelated posts that are just for fun. My child is learning disabled and is in special education in public school and has been since the first grade. He has dyslexia as well as some sensory and processing issues and I discuss these as well. I provide links to the resources we access as we access them and since he is only a tween right now, we are just beginning the real journey with this diagnosis as I am told it gets really challenging in the teen years and then into adulthood where he will have control of his own therapies and medication compliance. Prior to being diagnosed as being bipolar he was diagnosed as ADHD. He may still have that diagnosis as well but we won't know for certain until we get the mood piece of his situation stabilized. Please join us in our journey as we navigate the teen years and beyond.
