I have been struggling with mental illness for about 50 years. I knew somehow that I could overcome it. I had been in therapy at various times. It help some, but not quite enough.

I became obsessed at trying to cure myself. I studied everything I could from paleo anthropology, metaphysics, theology, and so on. I had made a lot of good progress, the doctors and therapist were amazed at what I was doing. I had made improvements and learned to work around some problems.

Three years ago I found a movie called What the Bleep Do We Know. Wow! It really opened some new doors, it really made sense now, and I even noticed things changing.

Almost 2 years ago I somehow ended up here in Hawaii. Little bit here and there things were getting better, but something was still missing, I felt. Then my son told me about The Secret about 3 months ago. I knew this was it. I started using the Secret and really noticed things happening.

One of the first things happened right away. I was asking in my mind for some kind of confirmation that I was on track. I saw a yard sale sign and something told me to stop. I was looking around and noticed they had one book sitting on the table, and I couldn’t believe it. It was Chicken Soup for the Soul.

The main thing that has changed in me is that the very negative thinking that goes with being bipolar is fading away. Thank you, thank you.
