Every time I attend a NAMI meeting I struggle to use the correct words to describe my condition.
"My name is piri and I have a bipolar condition". Opposite to:
"My name is piri and I'm bipolar 1.
Nobody wants or cares to know your number. Unless you're a 10.
(Holly ****!!, a 10!!!) (What planet this guy came from?.)
You are not bipolar. You have a bipolar condition.
You are not cancer. You happen to have cancer. (God forbids.)
Hi my name is piri and I am cancer.
The difference suits me well. And is not semantics. It's reality.
Practice and you will feel better too.
