A man who has bipolar disorder is using his experience to fuel a nonprofit to improve mental help through volunteering and kindness.Justin Kruger is the CEO of Project Helping — a nonprofit that aims to provide opportunities for people to build a sense of purpose and connection by volunteering.That includes making 'Kynd Kits' with positive messages and helpful resources for someone in need."I started it based on my own struggle with mental health," Justin Kruger said."At a point where I was really struggling with my mental and had tried a number of treatments, I was invited to volunteer. And I went -- sort of begrudgingly, but I went – and found that the sense of purpose and connection that I got from that was really powerful for me in dealing with my own mental health challenges," Kruger said.Kruger is living with bipolar disorder."I feel like I'm always coming into or coming out of one episode or another," Kruger said.Bipolar disorder is a genetically-based mental disorder that affects a person's ability to regulate emotion. It leads to extreme mood swings – Kruger explains it as a rollercoaster with endless ups and downs. Psychotherapist and author Michael Pipich says those peaks and valleys are referred to as manic and depressive states."We see symptoms including grandiose feelings and inflated self-esteem or high levels of irritability and agitation along with what we call 'decreased need for sleep' — which is not insomnia — in which you try to sleep and you can't," Pipich said. "A person in this manic episode very much doesn't want to sleep so that they can keep going because they're just enthralled with this high level of energy.""It almost feels like a superpower when it happens because you can be so productive and get so much done, but yet it's so deeply exhausting," Kruger said.That 'super' feeling is only temporary because then the depressive state kicks in."That's a period of days and nights of very deep depression where they feel hopeless and where they feel quite the opposite of what they were in that manic episode," Pipich said.Pipich says they also have damaged self-esteem, they lose a sense of pleasure in their daily activities, they disconnect from relationships and they can often feel suicidal. Kruger says he deals with a lot of fear of the unknown because he never knows when an episode will hit, or how long it will last."And especially in the depressive side – like it feels like it's never going to end. Though it almost inevitably does," Kruger said.Pipich says it's important to raise awareness of the disorder because it's far more prevalent than people even realize."We believe that up to five percent of the total population may have some form of bipolar disorder," Pipich said.According to Pipich, recent studies show it typically takes 10 years for someone to be accurately diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Many people get misdiagnosed, and improper treatment can lead to more needless suffering -- especially if loved ones don't understand what's going on either. Justin's wife Ashlee says he's the most loving and passionate person she's ever known, but there are days that are more challenging than others."It's hard because you're not quite sure sometimes what to do. You feel like you're almost paralyzed like if you do something a little bit wrong, it's going to be dissected, and it might spiral him," Ashlee Kruger said.Since Justin has learned to be open about his feelings, Ashlee now feels like she can be the support system he needs."The best way I feel like I can support him is just by letting him know I'm there," she said.And she also supports him in his endeavors to fulfill his purpose in life — which he found through Project Helping. Justin says he's now living a life with much more hope and happiness. However, he does realize he's in for a continuous battle with ups and downs. But it's a battle worth fighting alongside the people he loves."There are things that work, and it's just a matter of finding them. And it's not linear you're going try things that'll work, you're gonna try things that don't. But you gotta keep trying," Kruger said.  4155

A partial government shutdown remains in effect after funding expired for roughly a quarter of the federal government when the clock struck midnight on Saturday — and it is not clear when it will end.Negotiations between congressional Democrats and the Trump administration over the President's demands for a border wall have so far not yielded an agreement, making it likely that the shutdown will continue until after Christmas. It is even possible that it could still be underway when the new Congress starts in early January.Here's a look at the latest on negotiations and the outlook for the partial shutdown:How long is the shutdown expected to last?The President's incoming acting chief of staff Mick Mulvaney 729

Alabama Public Television says it won't air an episode of the children's show "Arthur" that featured a same-sex marriage."Mr. Ratburn and the Special Someone" aired as the premiere for the show's 22nd season on May 13. But not in Alabama.Programming director Mike McKenzie says Alabama Public Television has no plans to broadcast the episode.The storyline about Mr. Ratburn's marriage conveys a positive message, he said. But while many parents will find it appropriate, many others will disagree, he said -- "either because their children are too young, or because of their beliefs.""Our broadcast would take away the choice of parents who feel it is inappropriate," McKenzie told CNN in a statement.The response to the decisionCNN has reached out to WGBH, which produces the series, and is waiting to hear back. PBS told CNN that its local channels decide what to put on the air in their markets."PBS Kids programs are designed to reflect the diversity of communities across the nation," PBS Kids' Maria Vera Whelan told CNN. "We believe it is important to represent the wide array of adults in the lives of children who look to PBS Kids every day."The show's creator told CNN he felt like the episode was a responsibility they had with Arthur.Mark Brown cited his friend Fred Rogers, better known as Mr. Rogers, who taught him how television could be used to help children in families."So many of us have have family or friends who are gay who are not represented in the media," Brown says. "We have people in our family that are gay and raising children and looking for things to validate their families."The ceremony is a literal wink and nodThe episode doesn't specifically address Ratburn's sexuality or show a marriage ceremony."Who is Mr. Ratburn marrying?" Muffie, one of the character, asks.The scene then cuts to Mr. Ratburn, their third-grade teacher walking down the aisle with Patrick, a chocolate maker. Patrick simply answers the children with a wink.To see the episode for yourself, view the episode by clicking 2046

A view of a well-preserved colorful mosaic floor of an ancient Roman villa archaeologists have revealed among vineyards near the northern city of Verona, Italy. The official in charge of archaeology Verona province, Gianni de Zuccato, on Friday said the mosaics appeared to be ‘’in a good state of conservation,’’ from what they are able to observe after gingerly digging a trench between vineyards in the hills of Valpolicella, known for its full-bodied red wine.
