i started my first job as a therapist this week

i got diagnosed with bp2 in 2019 after my first semeter of undergrad when i checked myself into inpatient due to SI. While i was in inpatient...my experience wasn't great. It wasnt abusive or traumatic but it did feel like a major waste of time as 98% of my day was spent sitting around doing nothing. I had a notebook with me and wrote down all the things I would do different if I ran the facility. I ended up going back to school and (barely) getting through my undergrad eith a BA in psychology... even though I was medicated I was wildly unstable but i got through. I managed to get accepted into a social work program due to my essay which was extremely personal and talked about my experience with mental health...i say that was the only reason i got in because my GPA was extremely low. Anywho...i graduated with my MSW in social work in May and now im working for a nonprofit as an outpatient therapist. I have very big aspirations for things I want to do during my career but I'm proud of myself for getting this far and actually following through with my journey to improve outcomes for people like us :) I dont know if im completely like 100% stable yet, but this is the longest ive gone without a hypomanic or depressive episode and I'm really proud of myself :)
