I began experiencing bipolar symptoms at the age of 9.
I could barely focus in school, had lots of energy, and had crying fits.
I started to have depression at the age of 11 and mania at the of age 13.
During my sophomore psychology class I self diagnosed myself with bipolar and at 18 I was proved to be correct.
After multiple years and ups and downs I finally have a hold on my illness and found my center.
I have learned how to find myself and remember to be me despite this illness.
These poems I collected and put together for you to read is my depiction of my bipolar whirlwind.
