Anger feels so violent inside...happiness is more like sheer elation.

That study I was telling you about that my friend found in his psych book, also mentioned that these people had extreme emotions, and sometimes obsession.

A couple years ago, I would have called you crazy. But can you really blame the illness completely?

I guess I didn't realize how depressed you were this last few weeks, and I'm sorry for not seeing that. You're just so good at puting a smile on even when you're hurting inside. But haven't you always been? Is it really just the meds?

I hope this doesn't make you angry.. I just think you have more strength over your emotions than this post implies..

You have been more stable and I would say almost a different person lately. But then again, I am closer to you now than I really ever have been, so I really don't know. I guess I just question how much of your new found stability is medication and how much of it is just you being older and wiser..

maybe I'm the reason why you feel you have to defend your illness..
