Well, this is why I call myself BipolaRNurse.
I won't tell you that nursing is easy, especially when you're bipolar. It is hard work, and sometimes very thankless work. But you get to deal with every kind of human situation and believe me, EVERYONE is a potential psych patient.....sometimes the only difference is that we are diagnosed, and they're not.:-)
