HAPPY NEW YEAR
How were your holidays? I hope you enjoyed yourself and had lots of goodies to eat. Now it is dieting all round! I had too much to eat but had one of the best
Christmases I have ever had. I was invited at the last minute to go to a friend’s house which was far preferable to being alone.
I know some of you were home alone at Christmas and others with bipolar were having a hard time of it. Christmas holidays can be very difficult for some people. It is very sad.
Did you get a chance to read any books? I must say I was too busy for reading but will catch up soon. I am reading a mystery called “The Face in the Water,” by Kathleen Pennell. She is a great writer who keeps you guessing to the end. I shall read her next book in the series, “The Man at the Ruins” when I finish with this one.
I am in the throes of writing my fifth book now. It is about bipolar symptoms and focuses on bipolar depression. I am a quarter of the way through and it will be out in the spring.
For those of you with bipolar, I do hope you will check it out.
I wish you a very happy New Year and blessings for whatever you aim to do. Are you going to make any New Year’s resolutions in 2023? I intend to write at least another three books.

LONELINESS
“Have you ever been lonely? Have you ever been blue?” That’s how the song goes, doesn’t it? And it you are like many people you can identify with that song because you too have felt lonely on occasion
“Have you ever been lonely? Have you ever been blue?” That’s how the song goes, doesn’t it? And it you are like many people you can identify with that song because you too have felt lonely on occasion.
Of course, you can go out and mix with society – eat alone or go to the cinema – but the worst thing is the secret feeling of shame that sometimes washes over us because being on our own often sends a message that we are alone because we have nobody to be with.
There is a huge difference between being alone and being lonely. One is a choice, the other is not. If you choose to be alone, even isolated, that is one thing, but if you are alone because you have nobody to be with that is quite another.
My new book “A Practical Guide to Overcoming Loneliness” is now out on Amazon. It covers all aspects of loneliness and has many anecdotes in it taken from my own life experiences.
