I know this is a support subreddit, but I think sometimes we all need to know that our disorder isn't just a sucking black hole and that we are actually functioning human beings capable of so much more than this vicious cycle. I'll start out to name a couple.

- I'm planning to write a science fiction book about bipolar disorder, the main character being medication-resistant. 

- I've been able to keep up on housework lately, despite being in a depressive episode (HUGE victory)

- I made a friend! Kind of! We've been 'friends' for two years ever since we started working together, but we actually started hanging out recently. It's been awesome, and she's been so understanding. 

- I'll have a job as soon as I can pass a drug screen (just delta 8, hoping it's out of my system by now, picking up some dollar tree tests today. Wish me luck!)

- I'm getting $200 from chase banking just for setting up a checking account. It'll be some much needed financial relief. My part time job, Barnes and Noble, is upping my hours as well. They've been so willing to work with me.
