Blue, I am so sorry your dad said that. Must feel like crap to hear him spouting off like that? Must hurt you?

I hear "bipolar" used as a negative term thrown around as a reason for all kinds of behaviors. It's due to ignorance.

I often hear people living with bipolar are "dangerous" to other ppl.
Huh? Dramatic stuff. Silly, yet harmful ignorance.

I'd hoped we be further along with general public education in 2016.

When our friends/family start spouting ignorant statements about bipolar behaviors, it hurts.

Hugs to you, Blue.
