Here is the first thing you should know about me, I am bipolar. What does this mean? Well my emotions go up and down and all over the place. One minute I'm happy and laughing, or singing and dancing around, the next I'm crying and wanting to die or not wanting to do anything but lay on the floor. Keeping this in mind, my days are a mess of emotion. On my lucky days I feel nothing at all, complete emptiness.
I see the world very differently than "normal" people. My world is in black and white...not literally, I'm not color blind but figuratively. Everything around me moves slower than what other people see. Another thing that is different than most people is that the words on street signs or billboards seem to yell at me. When most people just see an advertisement "Our new burger is the best!" I see the sign bigger and more aggressive. I also see things that most people don't see, such as the homeless man sitting at the bus stop who is picking at a hospital band that is still wrapped around his wrist. I see things that most people take for granted like the couple at the park holding hands and looking into each others eyes. Most people would think that this action was cute but they would move on, not me, I think about how it might be like to have that and how long that couple will stay together and wonder if they truly love each other. I like to create stories for people about how I think their life might be based on how they act or look. I also see beauty in things like the lights at night and how they sparkle, their light slicing through the dark sky that blankets the rest of our world. All of this is to tell you that I am not like everyone else.
