I've always wondered a lot and thought a lot about what my bipolar disorder is. I've always wondered why I had it, and what purpose if any it would serve. Well after talking to another bipolar friend yesterday, I came to the conclusion that it's nothing more than a thorn in my flesh. Paul of the Bible talks about this even though he doesn't say what it is, he knows it is causing him to struggle and endure great pain. It's something a person must overcome and conquer. It won't hold me back anymore. I'm not saying it has been all bad, enduring manic episodes and everything has taught me a lot about myself. From what kind of person I am, what I'm made of, and how much God can use a person who believes with this disease. It helps me be creative at times, which is also a plus. I don't think the illness is all good, but I know it's not all bad either. I'm finding out more and more each day, as the puzzle pieces come together...

AuthorI was diagnosed bipolar 1 in March of 2005. It's been a challenge to say the least to live with this disorder everyday. There has been some major ups as well as downs. It's just something I have to deal with. Everyone has their own problems and struggles to sort out and this is just one of mine. I'm not asking for anybody to feel sorry for me. I just want to educate those who don't know much about it, and if it helps out somebody along the way even better. Archives
