Coming back from the other side of my Bipolar Wonderland through medication, creativity, and moxie.
Man, it’s been a minute since I posted one of these. The new med I’m still adjusting to is supposed to have a soporific effect. But I’m just staring at the ceiling while Mac snores the night away. Even Spock is asleep!
