Life as a Bipolar Man

A FIRE in the Brain

  • Don’t excuse yourself for being Bi Polar. But don’t make it an excuse either. That’s much too easy to fall into that trap.

  • It’s so fun to be bipolar.

  • Love, within a relationship, is hard enough for anyone. But add a bipolar man to the equation and you’re just asking for trouble. Flying off the handle about nothing is their stock in trade. The end result, of course, is his family hold a grudge for whatever was said or done, in the heat of the moment.

    As the years go by the grudges & increasing resentment mount up. It’s a lose/lose situation for the bipolar man. That is bipolar life, in a nutshell.

  • My bi-polarism has been like me and my shadow all of my life.

    It’s true damning affect on the ones I love has just revealed itself to me, while reading old letters and postcards and looking at photos. What pain and sadness I have wrought by my explosive anger and my poor judgement. As a bipolar man I am simultaneously guilty and still not at fault. I’ve also stolen my spouse’s love for me.

    You don’t choose to be bipolar, it comes with the package. Doesn’t it?
