Words Of The Wisdomless: Names - By Chato B Stewart
Words Of The Wisdomless: Names:
"I think Bipolar is misnamed! Yes, the description of two mood spectrums from mania to depression may fit for some. But, whatever happened to normal? Shouldn't it be renamed as TRI-polar to include the normal mood. I don't know about you, but I've met a lot of so called normal people. They all were are bit nutty to me! I say 'normal' is the new crazy!"- by Chato B. Stewart

Words Of The Wisdomless: Friendship
Words Of The Wisdomless: Friendship:
"Today a FaceBook friend sent me a nice quote - "Friends are like walls. Sometimes you lean on them, and sometimes its just enough to know they're there."
Yes, I had four friends like walls, BUT... I had to knock them down!!! I was getting too claustrophobic.

Claustrophobia
Claustrophobia (from Latin claustrum "a shut in place" and Greek φόβος, phóbos, "fear") is the fear of having no escape and being closed in. Claustrophobia is not a clinical diagnosis and the technical term for these symptoms is Agoraphobia. It is typically classified as an anxiety disorder and often results in panic attack. One study indicates that anywhere from 5–7% of the world population is affected by severe claustrophobia, but only a small percentage of these people receive some kind of treatment for the disorder.

Words Of the Wisdomless:- Smart Goals
Words Of the Wisdomless:- Smart Goals -
"It is better to make goals you CAN'T reach then NOT to make any goal at all! At least you'll be thinking of doing something, and that is ALWAYS better then doing nothing all. Now, that is smart goal setting."
-by Chato B. Stewart
Short term goals can be as simple as getting out of the house every day for a a few minuets. Or doing small projects. Long term goals can be set by the months or the years or not time limit at all.
The main "goal" of setting goals, is to give us focus and purpose in our daily actions. Just remember some goals might be unattainable so keep them realistic. This will help you avoid any disappointment is you don't reach them. For example, if our goal is to have supper powers, I'm sorry but that won't happen. On the other hand, if our goal is to get a job, or if you like sports you can set a 95 yard soccer goal well, that may be more attainable.
Setting goal is a great coping skill, especially when they are simple goals. Here are a few sample goals objectives.
The ideas is not just achieving goals, rather by setting goals and objectives it will help us stay focused on our recovery.
As I said before smart goal setting does not have to be complicated. For example, I set a goal to make up a quote about goals and write something about goals. I just successfully completed two goals! What goals will you set?

It is always best to set two type of goals, short term and long term goals. Short term goals will help you to accomplish the small goal that can help you work towards the bigger goals.Short term goals can be as simple as getting out of the house every day for a a few minuets. Or doing small projects. Long term goals can be set by the months or the years or not time limit at all.
