Thats easy tell someone your bipolar and 99.9% of the time they turn and walk a way from you (sometimes run) But that .001% will stand there and say they understand and open theirs arms in help.See when it comes to bipolar we all feel the same .Ive meet many people of all ages and back round and the one thing we have in commen is we all feel the same way and have the same stories .How we deal with our bipolar is where we diffrent . There two choice to get help and on meds. and work very hard at learnig to live with our bipolar or to do nothing and have our bipolar destroy our life.
