I think the vast majority of people think its a shave your head and post 831334 selfies and tweets.. Well that the celebrities giving what I think is a bad rap to people with Bipolar ... as far as the average Joe?

I wasnt diagnosed until I was 43 .. of course I was Bipolar for decades ... So what I thought way back then as I was clueless.... " People get moody and sometimes make no sense at all in any way shape or form, often. Maybe its for attention? Maybe its the " cool" thing to have? Looking back now... I can actually see that I worked with quite a few Bipolar people and at the time I thought there were a bit quirky or dealt with more depression than I thought was average.

So literally seeing things on both sides of the fence.. I can see why people often get the wrong idea about the average person with Bipolar...

Just wanted to add.... I really don't give a ratsass what people think or don't think of me and my Bipolar
