Jovo, I don't care if you are bipolar. As long as your willing to talk to me, you'll always be a friend. No label could change that.
I was honest to god in tears before I called you, but just talking to you helped a lot. NoRam kept insisting that I should call you because (besides me always referring to you as my best friend) you would probably understand more than any of my other friends possibly could.
*HUGS*
I love you, Jovo. You're awesome. Tomorrow, I'm going to make a big batch of comfort food (chocolate chip cookies) and I'm going to Fed Ex some to you. I don't want to hear a word about health food. Everyone needs cookies now and then.

TuffGhost I can't really say anything the bipolar that you haven't heard me say already. It sucks, it doesn't go away. You either accept it and move on (which is easy on good days) or you get all broody and mope around about (which is easy all the time). I always have to remind myself that when it gets bad, it's really not that bad. Then I force someone to talk to me until I honestly believe it's not that bad. Usually, it's you, Vague, Jen, Tinsley, or Ryan. I'm looking forward to it! Now all you need is a phone so I can call you when I'm mopey... or when I'm happy too. You need a phone. Sorely. xp It's funny because, when I was first diagnosed, it wasn't a problem. I went about a week doing okay. Nay, I was feeling awesome. Then, it hit real bad, and I suddenly became really depressed about it really fast. Curse you, cycles! Montigo Dominic Jo, i do care, I just try to analyse things too much lately... It's okay. I'm feeling a lot better now. I really appreciate you guys. CraftyUnicorn I was honest to god in tears before I called you, but just talking to you helped a lot. NoRam kept insisting that I should call you because (besides me always referring to you as my best friend) you would probably understand more than any of my other friends possibly could. You can always call me. You should always call me. Never don't call me, especially if you're feeling bad. You're the first person I called when I started going through this rut. And the second, and the third, then I figured I'd just leave a message and wait for you to call me back. sweatdrop Talking with friends is my number one prescription for forgetting what ails you and, later, dealing with it. wink CraftyUnicorn I love you, Jovo. You're awesome. Tomorrow, I'm going to make a big batch of comfort food (chocolate chip cookies) and I'm going to Fed Ex some to you. I don't want to hear a word about health food. Everyone needs cookies now and then. You're the bestest! I'm gonna have to wait until after the party to eat them, though. I need teh uberthinness for eighties night! ninja

*belatedly -- hugs*
I feel like I've missed a lot since I've been away, and I feel strangely like an outsider in this group, like I'm intruding...
In any case, you do know that I care about you, right? And that I have a respect for you that stems from something other than your good looks, your reputation, and your Gaian affluence. I know we don't know each other very well -- I feel like I don't know you nearly as well as I should -- but you do know that much, right?
I really am sorry to hear about this -- glad that you at least have some sort of answer, however incomplete, but sorry that you needed one and that the one you got is so difficult. Because, yes, it could be worse, but I know this s**t is hard. But it hasn't lowered my opinion of you, JoVo; and if there's anyone who I think has it in him to get through this, to keep on getting it, it's you. That doesn't mean you can always do it on your own, but *points to the posts above hers* you have friends, right? And they love you. You. And that's huge.

You're welcome, sweetheart. Very. I'm glad--well, just 'you're welcome,' really. *hug*
However, I wouldn't discount Crafty's cookie offering...

I'll give you more than a hug.
This is when an angel emoticon would come in handy.

Astri You're welcome, sweetheart. Very. I'm glad--well, just 'you're welcome,' really. *hug* However, I wouldn't discount Crafty's cookie offering... The cookies are made! However, due to a bit of experimentation, these are the absolute sweetest cookies EVER! I can send you some of these, or you can wait a little while and I'll send you some more normal cookies.

I feel a little awkward posting here as basically what can a stranger really say, but I offer you my condolences. When s**t hits the fan it is not equally ditributed. Rember that no matter how manic or depressed you are on that roller coaster of emotion their are still people that care about you enough to listen and you'll always be Jovo.

Oh man I'm sorry JoVo for not being around when you discovered this. I know I'm just a pile of pixels to you but I'm here for you. I have a friend that is bi-polar. It seems like a very frustrating disorder. But as Jack and others have said, it's not like you just got it. It's been a part of you for a long time and you probably already have your own ways of dealing with it. Applying a name to it just makes it easier to find solutions by finding out how other people with the same disorder deal with it.
I guess everything's really been said and I have barely any knowledge on the subject. I definately cannot say I know how you feel or anything close to that. The closest I may have ever felt is when I was depressed when my best friend/secret lover died of cancer. But that's.... so different. Erg I sound like such a misinformed idiot. I should probably delete this post, but instead I'll just ask for you to ignore everything previous to this and know that I'm here for you.

Aww I'm happy that it did. I thought I might have made a fool of myself. But yeah if you ever want to talk about anything may it be puppies or pylons I love to chat.

"Puppies or pylons...puppies or pylons..." I rather like the sound of that. Is it...from something/someone? Or is it your own creation?
Anyway, you didn't make a fool of yourself. Don' worry about it.

Hehe that was my own. I thought of what I liked and I like puppies. Then I looked around and saw some pylons.
