The Bipolar Cocktail
People without Bipolar disorder have no idea what it takes for us to live day to day. Is it normal for a 31 year old to be taking as many mind altering drugs as someone that has high blood pressure, Alzheimer’s, or MS. This is without knowing the long-term effects of said medications that I take daily, if not twice a day! It comes down to the fact that I do this for my sanity, as well as my loved ones, so that I can enjoy every minute of every day with them! If this is what it is going to take for me to live a somewhat "normal" life, then so be it! My loved ones are far more important than anything else is in the world, and I want to be mentally present for them at all times!
