I'm ready

  I'm ready to help other people. With my degree  in Christian Counseling that I will get one day, I will be able to work in a church or a mental health facility or even open up my own business. Either way I'll be helping people. A lot of people have said to me , Well how are you going to be a counselor if your not 100 % right? To be honest I know I'll never be 100 % right. It's just not going to happen. I'm always going to have bipolar. I'll always have triggers. I'll always have episodes and I'll always be either happy or depressed. Having bipolar is normal for me. Yes it's hard. It's the hardest thing to go through but having Bipolar is not going to stop me from helping other people who are going through all of the things I went through. I understand what it's like to be angry. I understand what it's like to be really depressed, to be on medication, to have people in your life that don't understand. I get it all and that's why I think I'm perfect for this field. The purpose of this blog is so people can see what it's like to live with bipolar. A lot of people don't understand and I figured this is a perfect way for people to see that people with bipolar have futures and they are normal. They are just having a harder time than the regular person would. I have hope and faith that everything's going to be okay. I know it will, it's just going to take some time. Bipolar will not define me. I will define myself and I will never ever give up. I will always keep trying.
