I'm new here!

Hi, my name is mpcleroux. I'm here because I write about the parts of bipolar disorder and addiction recovery that don't fit into inspirational narratives—the messy middle, the awkward honesty, and the work of rebuilding when you're not sure what you're building toward.#MightyTogether #BipolarDisorder #ADHD

What's Up Wednesday

We have had a hard week here. Last night, I asked my daughter to look back on the day and find some moments that made her smile- she was really sad before bed and saying the day had been terrible. After a few moments of naming the few good things she could think of, we were laughing together and went to sleep with smiles on our faces, instead of tears.

Tell us in the comments what sweet moments you find today. 🍬

Do you ever feel like you’re constantly busy but not actually doing what matters to you?

You don’t have to fill every moment of your life with plans, people, and responsibilities that drain you.
You don’t need to say yes to everything.

During lockdown, many people realized how much peace came from stillness.
Now that the world is loud again, it’s easy to lose that clarity.

Protect your energy.
Cancel plans that do not serve you.
Say no to things that take you further from yourself.
You are allowed to live life on your terms.

What’s one thing you can start saying no to today? 👇

You are already beautiful when you are real.

We spend so much energy trying to look or be a certain way.
To be beautiful, impressive, admired, or accepted.

But the truth is, when you are real, you are already enough.

Realness has its own kind of beauty — the kind that doesn’t fade when you’re tired or sad or unsure.

It’s the way you show up even when you feel messy.
It’s the way you care when it would be easier not to.
It’s the courage to be honest instead of perfect.

You don’t need to chase beauty.
You just need to come home to yourself.

Because authenticity is what the world truly recognizes as beautiful.

What part of yourself do you want to stop hiding and start embracing? 👇

Motivation Monday

Sometimes it seems as if we wait until circumstances are perfectly balanced before we start something. In reality it's *always* the perfect time to start! How can you work on believing that this week and what's something you'd like to start this week?
