Well, it would seem I have it all wrong. He says I'm an electrical socket and he's tired of getting shocked. Understandable. I didn't think I was that bad, but apparently I am.

I have a cousin, he's older than me and both he and his mother have battled bipolar so I talk with him frequently about it. Basically he told me I needed to "own my bipolar" if I ever want to learn to control it. I'm not sure what he means, and so far he hasn't answered me yet, but he will, and usually he says things I don't want to hear. 😁
