| I believe that people with Bipolar Disorder have been a little misrepresented in this article, which is why most people are afraid of US, and most feel we must hide our illness, and a lot will not seek treatment due to fear of being viewed as "crazy," or viewing others reactions. Bipolar people are always portrayed as psychotic, or suicidal, and that is not the case with all of the Bipolar Disorders Types (there are many). Not everyone who has Bipolar Disorder experiences psychosis, not all Bipolar Types try to commit suicide, or become delusional, or even try to kill other people - its not just being manic, or being depressive. Bipolar Disorder comes in many different forms. There are people who are hardly able to function with this illness, not knowing they have it because they only know half the story, and missing out on a "normal"life . | |

| I think it's great that Savvy Miss and others are bringing the much deserved attention to mental illness. Bipolar Disorder is something I've witnessed first-hand with a loved one and it's refreshing to read about someone else's struggle with it and the hope that lies ahead. Thx! | |
