      Once I was discharged, the love continued — up through today, when I came back to work and they had a late birthday party for me. (Awww!)

      The point: My life is so much better now that I don’t need to compartmentalize all of that. Being honest and open is so much healthier.

      I know I’m so very privileged to work at a place where me tweeting all of this before bed is seen as a positive thing, not an “image issue.”

      But it really shouldn’t ever be seen as an “image issue” for people to be honest about facing mental health issues or treating addiction.

      My being honest about the blessings & challenges of my life (most are a bit of both, tbh) is one of the greatest gifts I bring into my 40s.

      I know such public sharing isn’t for everyone — even if they ~could~ do so. That’s totally fine! It’s not for everyone — or for all times.

      But if your are dealing w similar overlapping issues, I urge you to at least find some place (a group, etc) or someone to share it all with.

      It’s important not to have to rely on yourself to be willing to connect all the dots. For me, sometimes I need someone else to help.

      I love my life, my family, my friends, my job, my being gay, my bipolar, and my sobriety. It took 40 years to say that. But, hey, I’m here.

      So, that’s that. ... And on that note, I’m off to sleep. ... Night, all, and let us be good to one another — and ourselves.
