It's my 21st today, I'm old now! Mum came around and dropped off some roses for me this morning (I'm living alone at the moment), I'm just about to head off to the funeral now, then I'm off to uni for a few hours, then Mum, Richard, Adrian and I will be going out for dinner. I wish I could go to skating tonight - that would be a nice thing to do, but Wednesdays are horrible at the rink so I will wait until tomorrow. I'm not really that excited about today, but I am looking forward to my party on Friday when I get to see all my friends again.

The xray of my hand was fine, thankfully. I didn't think it would be anything bad, but I am a complete panic merchant and would have gotten myself so worked up over it. At least now I know there's nothing wrong and I won't worry over nothing.

I can't believe I'm 21, that's a big milestone for me. Ever since I got sick this time around at 17/18 I never thought that I'd make it to today, I thought that the dep/BPD/bipolar would get me first. It is a nice feeling to have made it.

Hey Babz,

Congratulations on making it to 21, you are right it is a huge milestone, especially when you suffer from depression etc.
I hope you have a lovely time at dinner tonight and have a wonderful time at your party with your friends on Friday.

Glad the x-ray showed no damage to your hand, and it is ok to panic sometimes, we all do it at times.

Again, Happy Birthday and have a good one.

Luv Nouse

Congratulations on achieving this milestone. Hope it was a good day/one you can remember.

Wish I was 21 again - not because I was drunk for mine - but to relearn about life, work and the like.

Go Babz!!!
