I have been exploring bipolar as a gift lately and it is making me feel better about it. I said to my T the other day that maybe my brain is more turned on than other brains. Maybe it isn't a disease at all, but an evolution that is happening among humans and we are lucky enough to be some of the first ones to experience it.

I don't know if that helps at all, but it is something that is helping me understand that although I may not be able to control mood swings, that I can control how I think about them.
