Vincent Van Gogh was born on March 30th, he was posthumously deemed to have Bipolar Disorder, thus today is World Bipolar Day. I didn’t know World Bipolar Day was a thing until I heard about it while watching the news a couple of mornings ago. But now that I know, I feel like I have to say SOMETHING in the name of walking the walk. I can’t tell everyone else to f*** the stigma and then let the stigma scare me. This is one of my wounds into wisdom situations Truthfully I am not completely aware of what people are unaware of. I’ll share the 3 top things that come to mind and maybe you will learn something new, and maybe you won’t. 1. Bipolar disorder and multiple personalities are not the same thing. 2. When you learn to manage it like a boss, you’ll find the upsides of the symptoms. Experiencing such a uniquely intense and broad range of emotion can create a whole new understanding of the capabilities of the mind, and a whole new appreciation for human behavior and connection. 3. Full on mania is a lot like your brain randomly deciding to take a boat load of cocaine. Zero warning. You have to live regular life in that state of mind. No one is anywhere near your level. Come down is included. xoxo J #personaldevelopment #growth #emotionalintelligence #crusader #stigma #vangogh #bipolar #badass #success #awareness #mentalhealth #soul #riseabove #crazy #guru -- source link
