Shock And Awe

I am a smart, sassy, sexy, compassionate 29-year-old woman, who has struggled with bipolar disorder for most of her life.  I have tried innumerable combinations of drug therapies, talk and behavioral therapies, workbooks, and have read over 30 text and self-help books on BD.  This blog, at least for now, will focus on my experiences with electroconvulsive therapy; but if you are curious to know more about, or are struggling with bipolar disorder or depression, or if you have any helpful advice for me or links I might find interesting, please submit your comments and/or questions where they are most relevant.

I intend to keep myself as anonymous as possible, because I am a very private person and this is a very personal matter. But I feel the need to speak on it, so I hope you will be able to relate to me through my writing, as opposed to just a random blurb about myself, and gain a feeling of connection to who I am and what I am going through.  My intent is that you will find this blog informative, interesting, enlightening, perhaps relatable, but most of all human.  I absolutely love it when people leave questions and comments, and I’ll try to respond to all of them.
