Hi,

I was doing some research on bipolar as I am in the process of being assessed for it.
When I came across beyond Blue community, I thought I should join.. In hopes it could help me through I'm guessing is going to be quite a journey.

So... Hello to you all.
Betty46.

We are all on a journey of some type. I call myself a work-in-progress. We all do the best we can and that is all we can do?
