I think my life would be different. But even though I don't let my MI define me, without it I wouldn't have achieved such heights of euphoria and had a wonderful childhood in my dream world in my imagination.

My MI is a gift, and sure maybe my life would have been better, but the real me is the bipolar me, warts and all. And even though I would love to wish it away, that drive and fire I have in my belly is part of it and I can't give that up.
