Dealing with \u2018bipolar envy\u2019 when watching celebs with bipolar disorder jet set and live their lives.<\/span><\/p>\n

I love writing for Bp Magazine. \u00a0In this edition, I write about my bipolar envy and how I wish I were like the celebrities who seem to have bipolar and yet are still able to jet set around the world- ignore triggers- drink and live it up and still be stable. HMMM.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

From the Bp Magazine for Bipolar blog:<\/p>\n

I have a massive case of bipolar envy. \u00a0I\u2019ve heard of people who get really sick and then find a medication that works and they never get sick again. Some people go YEARS between mood swings.\u00a0 Others can have full time jobs and lead relatively normal lives after a bipolar disorder diagnosis. \u00a0These people exist. I have heard of them, but wow, this is not the bipolar disorder\u00a0<\/a>I know.<\/p>\n

My bipolar is chronic. It\u2019s every day. \u00a0I feel like I walk on the edge between being stable and being sick from the minute I wake up until I finally fall asleep in a Melatonin haze. Please know this doesn\u2019t mean I\u2019m unhappy and it doesn\u2019t mean I don\u2019t get on with my life, but the concept of a life without daily bipolar disorder symptoms is currently just a dream in my world.<\/p>\n

It took me many years to come to terms with the concept that I have a very serious mental illness.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I am in the SMI (Serious Mental Illness) category and without my management plan, I would be in the hospital regularly. \u00a0Maybe this makes me different from others with bipolar, which is why I feel so envious to read of those who aren\u2019t freaking gobsmacked by mood swings almost every single day…<\/p>\n
