I Am... What I am...

I am Bipolar... I was diagnosed with this illness 2 yrs ago. But I only recently made the conscious decision to accept that I have a Mental Illness. It hasn't been easy or even a journey of self-discovery. In fact, I've been in denial so long that my life has been headed towards a downward spiral of chaos and self-destruction. I'm trying to fight for myself these days, working on ways to keep my mood stable and my thoughts peaceful. Currently, I'm trying to work on establishing a support group for myself. I just want to get better, or at least learn how to manage my illness, because I know now that I can't control it.
