Study and Higher Education Keep Me Grounded

 As you could probably tell from my last post, is that I might be slipping into my illness a little bit. I have gone off topic at least for two paragraphs and needed to make two paragraphs out of one. I will try my hardest to stay grounded and on topic.

My studies in higher education help me focus. It gives me boundaries over wayward thought. It gives me stability when I might have spiraled deep in thought. 

I start school again in January. During the Spring semester I will try to gather my thoughts and get ready for Summer where I will enroll into my last class for my master's degree. I must gather my thoughts because I will need to do research in the summer. 

I have an idea for my focus and I might do a survey on survey monkey. I would love to have you all participate. But for now, this is just in the first stages of thought. Just a glimse into what may come out of my experience. 

So, I thank you for your understanding where I got lost in my last post. It takes a kind and caring soul to come back here again and again even though I get creatively close to the topic but somehow, like Houdini, never make a complete thought. I get elusive. 

Please check out my Vocabulary ABC's and keep a close eye on loved ones. During the holidays some of us get triggered and can spiral quickly. Again, please watch your loved one. Don't talk about them as if they can't hear you or when they are sitting right in front of you. They need support and dignity and most of all...Love...

Also, remember 988...that is the 911 for the mentally ill.
