Mostly I was and am hypomanic. My normal state. \u00a0My thinking is becoming clearer again and things are settling down again. I&#8217;ve had some confusions but all is becoming good again I hope. \u00a0I have realised that my coping mechanisms do work extremely well and I need to fine tune them. \u00a0I need to be more aware of the triggers and of dates etc that can or might affect me. \u00a0Taking time off from work is possibly the one thing I need to keep on top of and to make sure I actually do. \u00a0 Life can take over or work certainly can. \u00a0It&#8217;s nice feeling back inside myself. I&#8217;m almost me again. Hurray. \u00a0I&#8217;m slightly concerned about normal health but I expect some payback for the mixed ultra fast cycling episode. \u00a0I&#8217;m winning. I will always be winning. \u00a0I&#8217;m getting my mojo back and it&#8217;s good. My passion is coming back too. \u00a0I&#8217;ve realised that I have to focus on myself far more and be a little more selfish. \u00a0Life is good and I will take the rough with the smooth. It&#8217;s fine. \u00a0Life is for the living. \u00a0We are a long time dead and there&#8217;s no second chances in life. \u00a0Talking of which we have the opportunity to rent 3 acres of land and I can maybe grow even more food there. Ideally I&#8217;d like to get better at it and then start maybe selling some. We will have 2 horses there initially and maybe some other animals. A cow possibly or maybe lambs and a pig or two. \u00a0I want some ducks and chickens. \u00a0Who knows. We need to talk to the farmer and see what he would be happy with us doing. \u00a0Plans for life are always good. \u00a0I even said to my wife that it all sounds good but I need to double check myself that I&#8217;m not just getting caught up in dreams rather than ideals and reality. So far so good. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yesterday I cycled a little but it was very mild. Mostly I was and am hypomanic.
