I keep Bipolar as small a part of my life as possible.

I can have a shyt day and it have nothing to do with my Bipolar. I can be angry at someone and it have nothing to do with my Bipolar.

I have Severe Fibro .. I deal with chronic pain from it ... But I know there is a difference between Fibro pain and old age pain * sigh*

Yes Bipolar is awful at times.. But its just part of my life and I have learned to have a good life despite it.

Bipolar is only has big as people let it be in general outside of episodes.. jmho
