The news this morning really got me down. I’m currently editing one of my books to add more information for the second edition. The focus is on social media.
It’s astonishing how what we put in our brains comes out as a mood.
I have known this all along, but during this coronavirus quarantine it has become extremely clear that what I choose is what I reap.
If I choose to read the awful news all day long, I will feel awful.
If I choose to have just enough information to be safe and then put my focus on work, relationships and creativity, I will have a better day.
Bipolar disorder is a triggered illness. Anxiety is triggered illness. Psychosis is a triggered illness. If you are new to my work, I think you will really enjoy the Triggers chapters in Take Charge of Bipolar Disorder and Loving Someone with Bipolar Disorder.
If you’re struggling with apathy, fear and weariness, I think you would really find hope in the strategies from Get it Done When You’re Depressed.
I wrote these books to help myself, people with bipolar disorder and those who care about people with bipolar disorder to come up with the management plan.
Where do you choose to put your focus?
