Great to hear the meds are helping. I hope that keeps going well. I have so many bipolar patients whose doctors have not figured out the meds yet, and it can be miserable. All I can do is make suggestions with deference to the doc.

I wonder if reconnecting with your old friend has some hidden benefit you have yet to see/receive - like sometimes a person who knew us a while back can have some interesting insights on our current version of ourselves. Or something entirely different, but positive. Who knows? At the very least, you know this person holds no resentment towards you, and that’s got to be a plus.

May this week bring good things into your life!
