Bipolar Circle 24: The Birthday Show! - Bipolar Bandit

So we skipped a week again. Because of being lazy or depressed - or a mix of both. What came first? So many things to think about in the wide and vast bipolar world.

So what is actually bipolar disorder? Is it really a disorder or just a symtom of something bigger and unknown? Something about our ability to live and love together as the human tribe we should have been?

Sow we got in touch with Bipolar Bandit - a friendly person who actually is diagnosed with bipolar disorder. Still - who have the right to tell us what we are and define us as humans?

Here in her own words:

My experience as having bipolar disorder is not only to educate, inspire, encourage ppl with mental illness, but also share tips on how to advocate and post blogs containing correspondence I have had with politicians and media. I have heard back from many including governors declaring mental illness awareness week in their states and personalized letter from President Clinton for my efforts. I founded Mental Health Advocates United and FB group Advocates for People with Mental Illnesses.

I know many very influential mental health advocates and have interviewed Natasha Tracy and DJ Jaffe on my blog. I have made top lists for mental health bloggers several places including Healthline in 2016 and 2017.

I am a contributor at The Mighty and a patient leader at Wego Health. I have been local advocacy mental health boards and had letters to editor published. I also ran a free event to raise awareness of mental health and make ppl aware of resources. NAMI, DBSA, BringChange2Mind, Mental Health America, and more were represented and our guest speakers were representative from governor's office and veteran from Wounded Warrior Project.
