This is a great idea for a thread! I am going to free write one right now, dedicated to all who suffer from Bipolar like me. Here goes:

Today I will not be your slave.

I will not surrender to your foolish lies.

You have haunted me for a long time and fought me hard, brought me to the brink of despair.

But today, just for today, I will make it through.

You taught to me to let go of time, to just "Be"

Just be "Me"

Now I don't fight you, I walk with you.

Like my addiction with alcohol you are my demon that I carry with me.

Like alcohol I cannot conquer you so I will live with you in peace and harmony.

59 days sober,

4,152 days with bipolar.

I made it.
