Zen In The Art of Living Bipolar

It's all about 'The Journey'. And the number one lesson I've learned is that we must 'let go' in order to 'gain control'.... especially when dealing with mental illness. By sharing my experiences of anxiety, depression and bipolar disorder, I hope to not only educate, humor and enlighten; but ultimately provide the much needed strength to 'carry on'.

Never Afraid To Fail

“Far better it is to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checkered by failure, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the grey twilight that knows not victory nor defeat.”

Theodore Roosevelt April 10th, 1899

True Power

" True power does not need arrogance, a long beard and a barking voice. True power is attained with silk ribbons, charm and intelligence"

- Oriana Fallaci in "Il Divo"

My Journey

Dr Kay Jamison said it best - "An Unquiet Mind". The continuous loop of internal dialogue. The highs. The lows. So finally, twelve(12)years removed from my original diagnosis, I've learned to respect my illness. Take it seriously. I've found my purpose. I've found my passion. Help is desperately needed for the millions suffering from bipolar disorder and severe depression. More than just coping methods. The real question is - 'What's the source?'..... 'What's the gene?' It's time to reach out. Raise awareness. Share my journey. Raise money for research. With the country's current emotional temperament, there's no better time than now. You see, during this rollercoaster ride, I've lost everything. My money. My 'friends'. My soul. But somemhow I've found the strength to navigate through bipolar disorder's gauntlet. I've learned that it's not a death sentence but actually a gift. Simply a race car that needs to be learned to be driven. The trick is - not too fast or not too slow. Always misunderstood. Years of expectations. Years of pain. Years of disappointment have led me to an epiphany.... In this game we call life, it's not if you can win or lose. It's if you can survive.
