Thank you :) I've been aware of my bipolar for a few years, started counseling because of it and had that diagnosis confirmed. But my social circles discounted the idea that I was bipolar, because they never saw me out of control... I kept that either underwraps or firmly inhand. Was nice to have someone validate that going off the handle and destroying my life isn't an automatic part of bipolar.
Excited to find this!! This thinks about my symptoms the way I do. I have been trying to watch the patterns and learn from them how to manage it better. Glad I found this.
Whenever I lose my way, or feel as though I’m losing control of my wellness, I come back to this video and remind myself that I can do hard things. I can live with bipolar IN order.
I too have been hospitalized 5 times for mania, and once for suicidal depression. Finally, for the first time ever, I was loosing sleep, increased energy, impulsive spending- went on for about 3 or 4 days, called my doc, got back on the seroquel, and voila- no more mania. now i'm sleepy guy, but that sure beats foaming-at-the-mouth-maniac-in-the-hospital-guy.
I have always known that I could use both highs and lows to my advantage even though others don't get it or agree. Love my highs who wouldn't enjoy elation and feeling incredibly happy? Right? However when I'm flying I'm also aware what goes up must come down so in a sense I don't want to feel too high or my down state will be like falling off a freakin cliff. When manic I could do a comedy show and everybody loves me. I don't need much sleep. Have tones of energy and use that to clean my house and other things that need a lot of energy. When I'm down which is an automatic reaction after I've been high for so long I'm aghausted and stop talkin, withdraw go inside my mind sleep a lot but I look forward to what I call my down time because lets face it we all need to rest now and then so I know its necessary knowing I can't stay up there forever. When down yes it can be extreme I write poetry and try to express myself through art and the most important thing I hold onto is that as opposed to my younger days at 55 yrs of age I know it will end and I will be high and happy again and because now I know its not the end of the world and a part of me wants to experience another high I hang in there. This is how I manage myself these days. I see a benefit to both up and down stages.
Thanks so much for this upload! I really liked this video! Please upload more!

It's totally true that you can heal from BD, there is no doubt about it...I don't have all the words to describe how this is possible, but it's a mix of emotions, thoughts, intuition and senses...and a lot of practice.
Great presentation :-) See things in a new light keep in mind that Bipolar disorder is a label and as you know it's easy to peel labels off and enjoy being just you. As Tom mentions in his presentation there are practical steps you can take to peel the label off and enjoy a great life! Smiles from The English Sisters
that was an awesome video, I loved it! Please make more videos like this and your channel will get a lot og subscribers, likes, comments, favorites and views. Where is this fantastic video recorded? It was actually awesome, please make more videos like this and you will be a star. What pc are you using?
Mr Wootten may I ask where you got the information that most bipolar people spend their time in a state that's not acute depression, dysthymia or hypo/mania? It's been my experience as a bipolar that it's mostly depression with some hypomania and rarely mania, but the depression as I age (I'm 26 now) is more a mainstay than it used to be. Part of this could be because of drug abuse and its effects on my brain which I can't fairly attribute to just bipolar. Who knows? Lots of bipolar people though apparently are more frequently dysregulated than not. This is according to a psychiatry book from 2004 I saw the other day, with a graph made by I believe a psychiatrist. So I was wondering your source on this, or if it's just your intuition. Either way, it's fine. Everyone has their perspective. Thanks for the talk.
Been hospitalized 5 times for mania, which is a clearer conscious state (to me).I wish somebody wouldve recognized this viewpoint when treating me. 30% mania would be great indeed. Now Im just on Lamictal..lol.
I am suffering from bp 1and 2 both at same time ,is it possible that both 1and 2 occur at same time period is it simultaneous ,social anxiety is also I am suffering from,maladptive daydreaming also,adhd also and I had taken some weed last year and I felt like prophet due to that my family and friends ignored me and said I am mentally ill and that traumatized me and that made me have ptsd also and I have some other anxiety disorders also and now these days I am in deep thoughts of how the universe created and what will be its end and but due to that I am so trapped in my mind that even spirituality and meditation is going wrong bcoz of my distracted mind I am stucked and trapped in my mind's Matrix plz help me out
I have been on 200 mg a day but have been on 400 before. Great for 'stabilization'. I have realized that unless I want to go live in a cave somewhere a fully manic state of mind us not possible to live with in this society. Ultimately it is self-serving and 'God' would have me serving others than just myself.

Yeah, did Seroquel but got off of that. Lamictal is the way to go...It doesnt mess with your head, make you groggy, etc. It just works. They make a generic now too. When Im manic I don't go spending, etc... I just think about and identify with the 'All-Maker'..lol... and other states of consciousness. Then I start speaking in metaphors. Then I get taken to the hospital by my family....oh well! I know the score Cant ever take that away from me. ;)
When I started talking to my imaginary friend... they asked me to consult a Psychiatrist ! When millions of people started talking to their imaginary friend...it became a Religion !
I will stand up for JESUS. Stop making fun of others beliefs! Especially on a video that is important to many people. Real people are suffering. And you mock this issue. That is cruel.
That depends on what you think cure means. Cure to me is that you have the full range of experiences and they are equally valuable. No matter what the state it give you insight to best handle the situation. Mania and depression when understood are advantages to have, not something you need to make go away and think that means cured.
It does not matter whether you can find a reason for the state when you understand what to do with it. What matters is how you react to it. The state just is; what you feel, think and do while in it determines whether you suffer from it or you use it to your advantage. In either case it hurts the same. www.psychologytoday.com/blog/bipolar-advantage/201207/how-i-found-ecstasy-in-depression might give you a feel for what it could be.
bipolar is not easy no one can controll it and there is no way to controll it only lord can do somthing about it cause bipolar is different than other disorders it is complicated

is just lamictal enough to keep your mania in check and how much are you taking?
I know this is late but lamictal is better for preventing, putting more resistance on depression than mania according to my psychiatrist
nice video subscribed and liked keep uploading videoss
amazing good video ~ keep it yup i enjoyed it

please i want to be in your subbox please make one for me
Interesting : Eight Essential Steps To Freedom. positivity is key to human progress yup
yea i honestly bet you can't free your self from bipolar-ism
Everyone is technically bipolar and freeing yourself from bipolarism would be more akin to goals of devout Buddhist monks
this video is pretty interesting. good topic? but you clog
Any disease and disorder can be taken into your advantage if you take the chance to make it.
I've seen this guy before and can't tell if it's bullshit or not.
just practice meditation for years it will cure it,
That depends on what you think cure means. Cure to me is that you have the full range of experiences and they are equally valuable. No matter what the state it give you insight to best handle the situation. Mania and depression when understood are advantages to have, not something you need to make go away and think that means cured.
Bipolar Advantage are you talking about biological depression of situational depression?
It does not matter whether you can find a reason for the state when you understand what to do with it. What matters is how you react to it. The state just is; what you feel, think and do while in it determines whether you suffer from it or you use it to your advantage. In either case it hurts the same. www.psychologytoday.com/blog/bipolar-advantage/201207/how-i-found-ecstasy-in-depression might give you a feel for what it could be.
+Bipolar Advantage can you write a tips for me in a comment .
That comment means you know absolutely nothing about bipolar. Thanks for your efforts to learn however.
bipolar is not easy no one can controll it and there is no way
to controll it only lord can do somthing about it cause bipolar is different than other disorders it is complicated
So are you saying because the "lord" gave people Bipolar disorders he is the only one who can take it away?
+NME10E can you cure it ?
+NME10E no one can do any thing about it only lord if you dont believe thats your buisness for me i do by the way im type 2
So are you saying that Jesus is the only way that people can get better that have Bipolar disorder, or AIDS or the cold?!
+NME10E no not jeasus
This is so amazing and helpful video,I really want to upload more :D
well this is always good information to know thank you kind sir
