So I came up with this idea for a blog post and I thought it might be cool to try it here. I wrote my bipolar a "dear john letter". This is what mine would say. How about yours? Let bipolar know just what you think and feel and then tell it to F-OFF It was a bit cathartic to me.

Dear Bipolar,

How long have we known each other? Several years, at least. And in all that time all you have done is cause me problems. I wish you would stop following me around. I guess the old adage is true, misery loves company.

I think we should break up and go our separate ways. Because the truth is- I hate you. I hate how you make me feel and I hate how whenever I take 2 steps forward you are always there to push me 3 steps back. I hate how my inner voice has been squashed and replaced by your misleading, persuasive tones. Mostly, I don't like who I am when you're around. I want the old me back and that can't happen if you keep haunting me.

So let's just say goodbye now. There is no need to drag this thing out for months or years. Feel free to go find someone else. I won't be jealous and trust me when I say this, I won't ever want you back.

Sincerely,

Megan

PS- it's not me, it's you
