I have a 14 and 8 year old. I was hospitalized a couple times this year and my children think it was for "pneumonia"
However my father thinks i should tell my 14 yr old who happens to be aware there is a family history of the disorder.
My mother disagrees and thinks it will put too much stress on my son.
I know he senses something is wrong but i am afraid of him feeling shamed or stigmatized.
Im not sure if a 14 year old can properly process it
Then again i with i knew WTH was going on with me as a teen!
When i am stable i also struggle with the concept of having bipolar which makes it that more difficult

I used to rule the world
Seas would rise when I gave the word
Now in the morning, I sleep alone
Sweep the streets I used to own
I used to roll the dice
Feel the fear in my enemy's eyes
Listen as the crowd would sing
Now the old king is dead! Long live the king!
One minute I held the key
Next the walls were closed on me
And I discovered that my castles stand
Upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
