Hello @kathrynann and welcome to Mayo Clinic Connect. I really like the phrase, whenever my mind is not at ease." It is good that you have found an activity that is relaxing and helpful to you.

As this is your first post, will you share a bit more about yourself, as you are comfortable doing so?

@hopeful33250 I was recently diagnosed now Bipolar 1 Disorder and ended a 30 year relationship. Alcohol numbed all of the chaos my brain was trying to sort. After years of dependency on a liquid, I physically and more importantly, Mentally, had to breakup my relationship with Alcohol. Coloring as a child was always a coping skill. I'm glad I refound that part of me. She's cool ! Never give up on Hope !
