Saying No

I have learned the hard way that if I try to do everything, I become exhausted and enjoy nothing. When you live with bipolar disorder, sometimes you have to choose a good night’s sleep over a night out with friends. With a full day of final rehearsals and today being the ONLY day off, I had to flake on my friends invitation to Thanksgiving. I feel bad, but know it will be smart for tomorrow.
