Mental Health - Bi Polar

What is bi polar? I never knew what this was when I was diagnosed and I'm not sure if I wanted to know as I wasn't accepting of being told I'm bi polar.

Plus I didn't know how I was feeling, no one ever told me. But I realised after going back in my life, I can work out which steps I took and when, and have realised I was always bi polar.

Bi Polar is a category which I was labelled, and it’s not widely understood by many. The label is used to categories people.

It is the state of mind that is depression and/or elated, I have experienced both of these.

In the next few blog posts I am going to talk about the signs in my life where bi polar could have been picked up at an early stage.
