I would like to give encouragement to all those who suffer from bipolar disorder or other mental illnesses. When in the midst of understanding your mental difficulties, relating to others around you while figuring out the best course of action for treatment and recovery, feeling alone and unsatisfied is normal. People around me genuinely cared but could do little. Most of them gave up quickly if they tried to help me at all. I always felt alone, abandoned and helpless. I was confused about my own feelings and thoughts without fully knowing how confused I was.
Now I have clarity in my mind and confidence in a way I never thought I would. Now I know I can achieve things in life that I never thought I could. This clarity came after a long journey through drugs, therapy and acknowledging religion.p
Your journey may lead you to a different point in life than mine but can lead you to a peace that has clarity and function. Don't be afraid of the journey and trust that you will find answeres.
