Bipolar Express

What is Bipolar Express? Why did I choose to title this message "Bipolar Express?" For those that have symptoms of, or who are already suffering from the disorder known as; being bipolar -- having one's doctor accurately diagnose this medical condition as soon as possible is very important! 

I want to help everyone who might be suffering from the extreme highs and lows of these mood swings by providing some direction to reliable resources. Not everyone knows whether they have symptoms of bipolar, or what they should do about them. Hopefully, my information will help someone.

1. Feeling sad, empty or hopeless most of the day. every day can be a symptom of bipolar.

2. Trouble sleeping at night and staying awake all day can be a symptom.

3. Often feeling worthless or guilty all the time is not normal, may be a symptom of bipolar.

4. Work, family and/or social life is suffering.

5. At times, feeling very euphoric, revved up, and/or irritable.

Dopamine:
Science has shown that dopamine is associated with thoughts and emotions. It also helps control movement in your body. A decrease in this neurotransmitter may slow your movement and even your motivation. While an increase has the opposite effect, resulting in increased movement and motivation.

Serotonin:
Serotonin is a chemical released in your brain by nerve cells. This chemical acts as a messenger to control your mood. Decreased serotonin levels may be linked to sadness or dips in your mood; an increase to a boost in your mood.

Being bipolar is treatable. Your doctor can help you, but it is best if you hop on the Bipolar Express and start getting help as soon as you can! You don't have to suffer with those horrible lows and highs anymore!

Let The Good Times Roll

  Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler! In other words, “Let the good times roll!” Mardi Gras is just around the corner, and Mardi Gras is about letting go of the not-so-good times and having yourself a whole lot of fun! This year, Tuesday, March 1, 2022, Mardi Gras in New Orleans returns after another year of the pandemic. Mayor LaToya Cantrell has told New Orleans Mardi Gras will return to the city in 2022. However, there are changes, mostly in altered routes of the famous parade through the city. Interested in going? Check with event planners. Thanks to French-Canadian explorer Pierre Le Moyne d’Iberville, it is believed Mardi Gras began March 3, 1699 when he camped just downriver from what is now New Orleans. Back in France, it was Fat Tuesday. Pierre named the camping spot Point du Mardi Gras and held a party there! I suppose he likely toasted to the event exclaiming “Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler!” I don’t know this for a fact but I’m going to go with it! A few years later, a g...

Our Allies and Strategic Partners

 Our Allies and Strategic Partners , the Pentagon, and White House officials throw these words out a lot. What do they mean? I have a basic understanding of the words but they sort of have the same meaning don't they? They do! When we hear our Defense Department officials use these words, they are very careful about how they use them. How so? In the world of international relations, they have two different meanings.

The U.S. is in alliance with NATO -- the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. NORAD -- the North American Aerospace Defense Command (with Canada), ANZUS -- Australia, New Zealand and U.S. Security Treaty, and the Moroccan-American Treaty of Friendship -- Which is America's oldest unbroken treaty. Documents that make alliances official are treaties, aka "treaty ally....
