This may be a bit heavy duty for the forum but here goes!
I have recently been diagnosed with rapid cycling bi polar disorder (a form of manic depression to most of us) I am aware that I have certainly self treated with my running over the past year or so and in my opinion it has basically kept me going through some tough times.
After a pretty spectacular mental crash I am just returning to training following 3 months off. I guess my questions to the forumites is has anyone else suffered from this kind of thing and kept their running going? My fear being, it will affect one of the things I love doing most.
Any comments/ support/ suggestions would be gratefully received. PM me if it is easier to talk that way.
Cheers
Lawrence
