The signs of spring are here and I am loving it. It is probably the most exciting time of the year as I know winter is over and I have the whole of the summer to look forward to. More sunlight means less depression means more energy mean happiness.


A symptom of this time of year has been a period of intense mania and my SAD (Seasonally Affected Disorder) moves me from winter depression. Now I have been diagnosed with mild bipolar I understand this mania and rationise it. But I used to spend the period for years worrying and panicking about the smallest of things without reason or understanding.


This period only last a few weeks and its followed by the wonderful summer ahead, and with my electric wheelchair, lightwriter and iPad, I am certainly looking forward to getting out there!
