Bits

I'm in my late 20s.
I was born female and identify as a woman.
I'm Canadian. I've lived in Ontario all my life.
I live with a good guy (who I'll refer to here as my SO), a dog, and a cat.
I have a graduate degree.
I have worked full-time since I got out of university.

I fell apart when I was 13. I spent time in a psychiatric hospital, where I was diagnosed bipolar a month before I turned 14.

Since my diagnosis, I have only spent about 2 years without being on some sort of antidepressant or mood stabilizer.

While I don't give medication much credit for any success I've had in life, I believe it has helped at times.

Part of my motivation for starting this blog was to document my work coming off antidepressants, hopefully for the rest of my days.
