Bipolar and ideas of how to help ourselves beyond medication

Lately I've tried to do a little volunteer in helping people practice speaking English for a couple of hours at my local library. It forces me out of the house plus engage with other people. It's an idea and maybe a starting point for those of us who have a tendency to isolate like I do.

@marjou Welcome to Mayo Connect. We are a diverse group of people who share our stories and experiences. Sharing about stepping out of what is comfortable, and helping others at the same time, sounds like a win-win situation for everyone! English can be quite a challenge to learn, there are many ways to pronounce the same written word. I bet the people who you work with are happy to have someone care about them like this! What else have you chosen to do that helps you not isolate so much?
