Bipolar? Ya think?? |
I need a good friend with an out-stretched hand to listen, to care and maybe understand. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Times of elation knocked down by despair; today I am happy, next week I won't care. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please won't you help me? Oh, just go away! I hate you! I love you! I need you to stay. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I feel great today, there's so much to do. Yard work, dishes -- laundry to name a few. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ All of these thoughts keep swirling in my head. But what good are they if I stay in this bed? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Something is wrong. I must figure it out. Crying and laughing and this strong urge to shout! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's been set, I'll see a doctor next week. Maybe he will have the answers I seek. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Diagnosis is in, it's been confirmed ~ Bipolar Disorder is how it is termed. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Two years later and I feel it can't wait, I now must reach out and help educate. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Support groups made up of people like me, All of us striving to finally be free. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I know what it is that I have to do ~ control the rapid cycling and the mood swings too. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ My mission is clear and I will prevail; No longer will I accept living in Hell. |
