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

Although NASA's Kepler space telescope ran out of fuel and ended its mission in 2018, citizen scientists have used its data to discover an exoplanet 226 light-years away in the Taurus constellation.The exoplanet, known as K2-288Bb, is about twice the size of Earth and orbits within the habitable zone of its star, meaning liquid water may exist on its surface. It's difficult to tell whether the planet is rocky like Earth or a gas giant like Neptune.The planet is in the K2-288 system, which contains a pair of dim, cool M-type stars that are 5.1 billion miles apart, about six times the distance between Saturn and the sun. The brightest of the two stars is half as massive as our sun, and the other star is one-third of the sun's mass. K2-288Bb orbits the smaller, dimmer star, completing a full orbit every 31.3 days.K2-288Bb is half the size of Neptune or 1.9 times the size of Earth, placing it in the "Fulton gap" between 1.5 and two times the size of Earth. This is a rare size of exoplanet that makes it perfect for studying planetary evolution because so few have been found.The discovery was announced Monday at the 233rd meeting of the American Astronomical Society in Seattle."It's a very exciting discovery due to how it was found, its temperate orbit and because planets of this size seem to be relatively uncommon," said Adina Feinstein, a University of Chicago graduate student in astrophysics and lead author of a paper describing the new planet that was accepted for publication by The Astronomical Journal.Although all of the data from the Kepler mission was run through an algorithm to determine potential planet candidates, visual manpower was needed to actually look at the possible planet transits -- or dip in light when a planet passes in front of its star -- in the light curve data. Kepler observed other events that could be mistaken for planet transits by a computer.But the "reboot" of the Kepler mission in 2014 that led to the K2 mission allowed for multiple observation campaigns that brought in even more data. Every three months, Kepler would stare at a different patch of sky."Reorienting Kepler relative to the Sun caused miniscule changes in the shape of the telescope and the temperature of the electronics, which inevitably affected Kepler's sensitive measurements in the first days of each campaign," said study co-author Geert Barentsen, an astrophysicist at NASA's Ames Research Center, in a statement.Those first three days of data were ignored, and errors were corrected in the rest of the data gathered.But the scientists couldn't do it alone. There were too many light curves to study on their own.So the reprocessed, "cleaned-up" light curves were uploaded through the 2731

A recently obtained arrest report details what led to the arrest of a Clark County School District employee late last year. Matthew Bidart, 27, was booked into the Clark County Detention Center for open and gross lewdness on Dec. 5, 2019, after an incident occurred at Del Sol Academy. Students informed school administration they had observed Bidart, a theater manager at the school, with a hand down his pants "doing a masturbation motion" while scrolling through his phone at his desk. The reported incident took place on Nov. 15, according to police records.One of the students told police they were "shocked" to see Bidart masturbating and informed them that they saw him doing these actions through his office window while they were walking backstage. Bidart initially told police he was having a problem with his zipper.However, upon further questioning, he admitted to touching himself while looking at Instagram, but "it was a light squeeze" and didn't think anyone could see him. The 27-year-old also told police he "would not consider myself masturbating." 1085

A storm system is poised to hit the same northern Bahamian islands that Hurricane Dorian ravaged earlier this month -- and it may be a tropical storm when it does.The system is expected to send heavy rain and stiff winds to the Abaco Islands by Friday night and Grand Bahama island by Saturday morning, areas where teams still are searching for 357

A mom says she took her daughter to a walk-in clinic, but was denied treatment simply because a past bill had not been paid.Are medical facilities allowed to do that? What we learned may surprise you.Takes daughter with fever into clinicJessica Vance wanted to avoid a ,000-plus emergency room bill when her 8-year-old daughter recently developed a cough and fever.So she took her to a walk-in clinic inside a local grocery store.But when Vance spoke to the woman at the desk, she received some stunning news. The employee said Vance had a 0 unpaid balance from an insurance payment that had not yet processed.So the employee said Vance's daughter could not see the nurse, and suggested they go to an emergency room if they needed immediate help."I said 'what do you meant you won't see her?' " Vance said. "They told me I have a balance due. I asked them 'can't you call insurance?' They said no, they could not."So she reluctantly put the past due amount on her credit card rather than drive across town to an emergency room — and a much larger bill."I ended up having to pay 0 that day for her to be seen," Vance said.What federal law saysSo can a health clinic refuse to examine a sick little girl, simply because her mom owes money from a past bill?Contrary to what many families believe, the answer is yes.Since 1986, the federal 1356
