I think being bipolar makes me unique. There are definitely special qualities to being mentally ill. But on the other hand, ask me on a depression cycle and I will have a totally different answer. I like that I can be hypomanic, (slightly) and have more fun than all the people who are drinking and doing drugs. I like that I am a contagious and lively person. But is that bipolar or just the person God created me to be? Good thread.
