Being Happy
It's nice to feel happy. I guess you could say "normal" but I don't know exactly what that word means. I just feel happy. That means I'm glad to wake up, glad to go about my business. Even work isn't a chore. I've been happy for about a month. No problems going to school, no trouble getting to my job.
Happy is when your meds are working. I feel fine. It's rare enough I don't have swings, even little ones, but I've been good except for one day this entire last month. That's a good thing.
Hate to sound like I'm gloating, but it's just such an uncommon occurrence with me. Even being broke and poor can't stop me from being happy. I just hope it lasts.
