Bipolar Depression

Managing highs and lows after events

When you are cycling down because of a major event like chemotherapy remember your bipolar coping skills. I am loosing most of my hair due to chemotherapy, a major change in my life (I have AML). My hair and style means a great deal to me. I was cycling down until I realized I was not alone in my journey. I began to get anxious over a buzz cut. Then I did it and my friends liked it. I used my tool of self-caring learned when diagnosed with bipolar disorder. You recognize your triggers and take action before mania or depression sets in. Please feel free to send me your comments and questions.
