Lalimom,
I have been having serious Bipolar problems over the past 3 or more years, and have been hospitalized 3 times in that time period. I also have 3 children (young ones).I decided to go back to graduate school a year ago, (to study mental health counseling!) and it is the best thing I've ever done for myself. I've had mood swings, and 2 of my hospitalizations occured this past summer, but as far as classes go -- that's the best part of my life.
The bipolar stuff has been difficult, but I've got a 4.0 average none the less, and my classes fire me up and give me more energy.
I hope the same happens to you. I just wanted to give you some encouragement -- it might make your life better rather than more difficult!!
Good luck ~~Autumn~~
