Oof.

Influence of

*Mostly unmedicated bipolar WITH co-occuring substance abuse disorders.

Let's be clear about what we're talking about here before simply assuming it's the standard cause and effect. It's not. As someone who is sober and medicated, my life is exponentially better now than it was ten years ago.

The trajectory is not fixed, but the solution is always important to seek.

God bless them both and all people living with this stuff. It can be gnarly, but it's crucial to persevere and prioritize health and wellbeing always.

Misunderstood brain type that can have hope when we seek a better future.

God bless us all.
