Do you ever have days where you feel so inspired and energetic? The days when you feel like you can take on anything and anyone in the world and come out on top. The days your brain is buzzing with plans and ideas and you feel your hands shake as you try to explain all of it to whoever is willing to listen. It’s like a crazy high that you acknowledge surrounds you, but you can’t stop it.
Do you ever have days that you feel like you are the scum of the earth. Days that you wish you could hide from underneath your covers. The days that there’s an invisible tentacle of death around your throat, neither choking you nor letting you breath. Many people can experience these feelings, if they can be condensed into a single word as weak as feelings. The point is many people can have either of those days. How many people have both in random subsequent orders? How many people can go to sleep at night perfectly content and confident with and in themselves and wake up feeling like living death. There’s a meme that says ‘I have two settings, sometimes I hate myself and sometimes I’m Kanye’ and I suppose many people find it funny. I, however, hate that meme. For people like me there are no settings. There is no on or off switch. I don’t have a manual or anot instructions guide. If I did I guess I could be considered defective. This concept of stories really speaks to me. I love the fact that you’re giving people to really share their own experiences, because no one has the same ones as others. Life is full of statistics and generalities, that we forget about the individual. My story isn’t the same as another’s even if we share the same disorder, which if many didn’t guess is bi-polar. It’s a label that I’ll live with for the rest of my life, but I hope that it’ll also help others live with theirs.
