stop blaming shit on your disorder- own the shit. take responsibility and learn how to manage it better.
im not saying blame yourself, im saying to own it. yeah you didn't choose to have a fucked up brain but none of us choose that shit bro. stop avoiding responsibility for your words and actions, there's always a way to fix/manage it
I just had probably one of the worst manic episodes in a good while and I am not only embarrassed, but I feel like shit for the things I've said and done that probably hurt or rubbed others the wrong way. did I blame my disorder? no. I apologized for MY actions
No matter how much I cannot control my symptoms at extreme moods im gonna own it. im tired of ignoring the idea of being imperfect. im not perfect, im so far from perfect. I will never be perfect and that's ok.
my disorder is something that holds me back from being fully functional and present but its not what makes me imperfect, its something that simply holds me back from my potential. ill keep fighting tho, I wanna see the potential become a reality
I used to be in denial of having bipolar disorder & didn't understand why it was classified a serious disorder but after this recent episode I get it. I understand. It took me such a long time to self evaluate and see the disorder affect my thinking and it feels like im a puppet
high periods of stress and extreme trauma causes bipolar disorder. I used to downplay how severe my traumas have been but I really did survive some shit. gotta remind myself how badass I am every now and then. be more compassionate to others.
