Good afternoon boys and girls! I want to talk about something today. I am talking about support system for bipolar type 2 which correlates with ADHD. As for now, I am doing great because I am living with my family and I can always focus on what I really want to do, which is writing and music, specifically piano. I really want to be good at it and perform in front of a crowd one day. I am still far from taking the 4th grade exam as I have forgot a lot of the theory so I need to pull in the effort and focus on it. I was getting really distracted lately for reasons unbeknownst to myself haha. My application for the TEDtalk is being considered and I can't wait for the result to be announced, even if I didn't win this year, I want to try for next year and again heheheeh. Basically, right now, just focusing on personal growth, friends and family. A strong support system is a must.
Apart from that, I really want to suggest a song, called Barriers by David Archuleta. It's about a guy who fall in love with a girl but he is willing to leave her to change the world, as in making the world a better place, tackling serious issues instead of meddling with love which is an honorable sacrifice. I really love that song. It's my jam forever as I really like David Archuleta. I believe he is a good role model as a singer, not only he is smart (he writes his own songs, can sing in multiple languages like English, Spanish, Italian, Tagalog and French, a former honor student at his school) , he is also a genuinely humble, down to earth person and is kind to everyone in which he went for a missionary program for 2 years in Latin America to serve the poor and preach his religion somewhere along those lines.
Uh btw, the main reason I blog again is because I need a channel to let out my feelings and my thoughts somewhere, to better understand myself and hopefully reach out to readers who would like my contents maybe (?) .
It's very important for us to know about ourselves as each of us is different, in our own ways, if we know ourselves best, it would be easy for us to amplify our forte and improve our kryptonite.

Medications
So the medications prescribed to me is sodium valproate ( mood stabiliser) which is a small and round purple pill. I have to consume it once in the morning and twice during the night after eating some food. My parents went to Mecca recently and they brought home the Zam Zam water for me to drink as it is known as the cure to any diseases in Islam medicinal practises.
Other than that, I do take extra dietary supplements like Elken's plankton something, Omega 3 fish oil , ginkgo biloba and recently I am thinking of putting apple cider vinegar into the diet as it is known as a good mood control. I do not take caffeine at all, as it makes me irritable and unable to sleep as my sleep requirement is 8 hours per night ( sadly as the meds is strong). I have a funny story for you guys! Once, I took 2 instead of one in the morning and I passed out instantly hahahaha xD . Oh and I remembered I used to have a fever once and I felt like dying because I ended up sleeping the whole day ( meds plus flu plus fever meds like heavy drug haha) . My friends always asks me if I ever feel high, and Im like yeah all the time LOL. It is a form of controlled drug anyways talen legally xC.

Leadership and personal experience
I think ever since I fall sick at 16 and don't really go to the school at 17 ( it's kind of funny and I laugh it off everytime I think about it with my friends) , I have always wanted to inspire people. I know I maybe not much of a leader, I did go to university, though only 2 semesters and had a great time and had the opportunity to be class representatives and had a really close relationship ( I think? haha) with some of the lecturers, they are very nice. I was very happy that I did my best and got a 4 flat and 3.78 respectively ( I wished I went to the Dean's list award ceremony but I didn't have the transport). At the same time, I didn't socialise much, more into the books, just focusing my studies. Plus, I don't really understand what the other students are into. It's very loud and ewww. It's very lively in a way that I don't like. I have a few good company back then, my housemates were very caring and understanding that I need to sleep before 12. I like to help them with their homeworks especially English as I really love the language and one of them is a medic student and she understands my condition which is a mood disorder. I did have a couple minor episodes which is forgetfulness and it was TIRING, forgot to lock the door, forgot which level I was at so I always have my doctor's number on the emergency call to acknowledge him.
