I wanted to explore and get in to other peoples minds of how some Bipolar moments can be percieved in a good light.

I understand, from experience obviously, that there are times (and for some, there are only times) where living with this disorder can bring destruction and harm in to lives. However I have noticed, especially on good days, that I can shift my perspective and see what is good about being Bipolar.

For example, mine would be that for one who hardly has good days, when they come about I don't take them for granted any more. I embrace the day, and enjoy it, my friends, family and moments more as a result. Where as if i had not experienced bad times, I wouldn't have had anything thing to compare it to, and I would have let it pass as just an ordinary day.

So in your eyes, how do you see having Bipolar disorder as a gift? Have there been any moments where you have really embraced and been thankful for your illness?
