I love how creative I am and I feel as though God has blessed me in so many ways....I feel like my biggest ailment in life (BP) is also God opening my eyes to the world in a different way.....I am around 30 years old and I am trying to become a better person of God.....and I can tell you that in my life I have accomplished alot and will do more...I also have been at the bottom and sometimes find myself feeling like that alot.....but God surrounded me with a great family......and I can honestly tell you with 100% certainty that prayer is the only way......everytime it has gotten bad.....and no one could help me.....who helped me? God, I cried and prayed and the only one there was him. I felt him and still do this past week had been awful for me...up and down....and my brother told me to read some passages and to go online and find others who seek God to heal this.....and here I am...and honestly...I feel alot better knowing I can give him all this anxiety...all this worry...all this sadness. Cause its too much for any one person. The best medication is GOD! Medication has its pros and cons and cons usually outweigh the pros…over time.

I think anything that works to help someone become stabilized should be considered. It is their decision whether to put it into practice, according to whether it will work for them. Thank you for your post. Dear Smithers –

Put another way, put God and all his power in one hand, and a simple lithium tablet in the other, and the people who choose lithium will defeat the God people in their management of bipolar every time!

It is good to be reminded of these scriptures that can be both useful and comforting when dealing with any kind of health issue. As you know I deal with alot of them and sometimes forget that God is with me and will not forsake me ever. Thank you for the reminder. I needed it. Thank you for this post.
