The language we use does hold a lot of stigma. I think the more exposure people have will help with that. Most people I know dont understand what bipolar is....my wife even is still trying. Its hard to break those old stereotypes without an engaging medium. If I try explaining bipolar to someone who doesnt understand it, its like, “do you have an hour?” or
It’s kinda like Homeland except there are different types because everyone doesn’t necessarily experience the same exact symptoms and we arent all superheroes. Some of us are just left with the negatives without saving the day.
More education comes with more interest - where does that come from?
