Bipolar Awareness Ribbon

Bipolar Awareness Ribbon

Hi! My name is Amy and I am a 34-year-old mother of four children. I live in the great state of Tennessee in a small town where cows outnumber people. Some of you may already know me from my previous blog, Being Bipolar. If so, thank you so much for following me during this move!

For those of you who don’t know me, I have been diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder I with psychotic features and Panic Disorder with agoraphobia. This blog will chronicle my struggles and accomplishments while providing information on the disorder and my personal tips and tricks for coping. In the next few days, I will be explaining the four types of bipolar disorder and the symptoms associated with each form.

If you are currently hosting a banner to promote bipolar awareness, I will be updating both the banner and the code for it within the next few days. Please update the code on your blog or website to properly direct your visitors here to find information on bipolar disorder and updates on Bipolar Awareness Month in February 2010.

I have found that many of my visitors enjoyed the humor posts on my previous blog and I have decided to continue them here. I should begin adding new humor posts starting tomorrow and I will try to add at least one daily.

Please bear with me as I work to build up this blog to contain all of the great information it once did. I appreciate your patience and I sincerely thank you for stopping by!

If you are interested in a link exchange, please leave me a comment below.

    Hi Amy! Thanks for adding my blogger blog (Life After Work) to your blogroll – thing is, I’m not a former today.com blogger – I still am with them. I’m still keeping my a malaysian abroad and answers without, answers within blogs there, for the moment. I’ll let you figure out if you want to link to me, and to which blog, etc: I’ll leave the URLS at the end of the comment :)

    I’ve added you to my Google Reader while I figure out the best way to sort through all the blogs I want to read, whether I’m wearing my “answers”, “abroad” or “mixed bag” hat on :)

    Cheers,
    *lynne*

  9. Thanks, Gina! I added your blog to my blogroll.

  10. Thanks for bringing that to my attention, Lynne. I changed it from Former Today Blog to my regular blogroll.

    Amy, I was going to say this on my blog, but I might as well leave my comment here – I just wanted to say that I REALLY like the URL you gave this site. I can’t believe I didn’t think of it! I also wanted to say thanks for putting my new home on your site, and that I will be sure to add yours to my blogroll.

    I have something I want to talk to you about in terms of SEO stuff, but that’d probably be better to do in an email, so watch for that later today.

    Hugs!

    HI! WOW, this is nice. It’s so happy to see you continuing this wonderful mission – I support you in every way that I can. Stay in touch – although I blog on Entertainment, Music & Life – I would love to cover a story for you as well, because after all – it is life. But there are a few people that dedicate their life to helping others and you are one of those blessed people. Congrats and the very best to you on your journey.

  13. Thanks so much, Hava! I’m hoping it will be good for me SEO-wise. By the way, thanks for the tip!

  14. Hi, KJ! Thanks so much! I have added you to my new blogroll. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to me email me. I am always happy to help! I’ll take you up on the story. ;)

  15. Hi Amy! Your new blog looks great! Very bright and clean, but with a definite warm, welcoming feel. Good luck in the new location, and keep up the great work!

    I’ve added you to my ex-Td.c list too, and I’ll be clicking through on a regular basis. :-)
