Bipolar Disorder Does Not Do This
Published: Fri, 09/19/14
Hi,
How's it going?
I hope you're having a good day.
Did you know that bipolar disorder does
not discriminate?
It doesn't care if you're black, white, or
purple.
It doesn't care if you're young, old or in-
between.
It doesn't care if you're male or female.
It doesn't care if you're married or single.
It doesn't care if you're blonde, brunette,
or redheaded.
It doesn't care if you're Catholic, Jewish,
Buddhist, Muslim, Traditional Chinese,
or whatever spiritual belief you adhere
to -
Or even if you're agnostic or atheist!
It doesn't care if you're rich or poor.
It doesn't care if you graduated from high
school or not, or if you have a thousand
college degrees.
It doesn't care what you wear...
What your shoe size is...
What your favorite color is...
What type of ice cream you like...
What type of movies you watch...
Or anything else.
BIPOLAR DISORDER DOES NOT
DISCRIMINATE.
If you want to gain stability with bipolar
disorder, it has nothing to do with any of the
above listed things.
If you want to gain stability with bipolar
disorder, you have to do the same things
I talk about in my courses/systems:

You still have to take your medications
every day.
You still have to see your doctor and therapist
when you're supposed to.
You still have to continue your treatment
plan.
You still have to get the right amount of sleep.
You still have to exercise.
You still have to eat a healthy diet.
You still have to be productive, so that you
can feel a sense of accomplishment at the end
of every day.
You still have to have a strong support system
and interact with that support system, making
sure they know how you're feeling and what
you're thinking.
You should still be keeping a mood chart
and/or journal so you can keep a record of
your moods, thoughts and feelings.
You should still be being proactive and
watching for signs and symptoms so
you can notice patterns and avoid bipolar
episodes before they happen.
You should still have outside interests so that
bipolar disorder doesn't take over your
whole life.
You should still try to join a bipolar support group
(if there is one in your area, or a NAMI group if
there isn't).
And you should still find pleasure in your
life, do things that make you happy, so that
you also have joy in your life.
It's all these things combined that will bring
stability to your life.
It's all about doing the hard work to get the
results you want.
I heard this story once about two brothers.
One was lazy, but the other was a real go-
getter.
Well, they both went to college.
The go-getter went because he wanted to -
he had hopes, plans, dreams, and goals.
The lazy brother went just because his brother
was going and, what the heck, his parents
were paying for it, after all.
College was not easy for the go-getter, but he
did his best and studied hard and got his degree,
being offered jobs even before he graduated!
The lazy brother struggled in college, because
it sure wasn't as easy as he'd thought it would
be. He cheated where he could and faked the
rest. He passed his courses, and barely graduated.
Now, who do you think will be the greater success
in life?
