I am not sure what I think. There are cute shirts you can buy that say "peace, love, cure bipolar disorder" and that is a very nice idea. I guess I just worry that whatever had to happen in my brain to "cure" it of the bipolar would alter it beyond just the awful bipolar symptoms I would like to get rid off. That somehow parts of me are attached to the bipolar and that removing them or fixing it all would change me too much.
I mean I guess if the definition of this cure was that it only would get rid of the bad parts than sure that would be great. But in reality I feel that bipolar is more complicated than that. This is probably a larger discussion of bipolar and identity etc and should have its own thread but I feel that who I am is considerably tangled up in the bipolar. A cure just seems too simple for what is going on. I don't know. Just throwing out ideas and thought when I should be trying to fall asleep. Well of course....I mean I am bipolar
I will say tho that i am all for improved treatments!
