Well, I have been a frequent poster when I am happy/okay in between episodes, or it could be me being manic, cause who the hell knows anymore, right? But, as far as feeling "normal" goes, as a bipolar person who LOVES her mania, when we lose that part of ourselves that made us feel like the best we could ever be, (charismatic, spiritual, creative, outgoing, social/life of the party), that "flat" feeling of normal life, just kills us inside.
At least that's my interpretation of it, from a personal point of view. To me the fact that I have lost my spiritual connection with God, has hit me REALLY hard, and its due to being "normal" on my meds.
