I Like That - The "you-ish" Character.

I Think That Now Most People Know Someone In Their Family That Is Coping With Something, But There Is Still A Tremendous Amount Of Shame - That One Is Still Regarded As A Defective Unit ... If Only They Would Pull Up Their Bootstraps - They Are Only Indulging Their Emotions, Everybody's Moody, Blah, Blah, Blah.

I Don't Want To Be Caught ... Ashamed Of Anything. And Because Generally Someone Who Has Bipolar Doesn't Have Just Bipolar, They Have Bipolar, And They Have A Life And A Job And A Kid And A Hat And Parents, So Its Not Your Overriding Identity, It's Just Something That You Have, But Not The Only Thing - Even If It's Quite A Big Thing.

I Like That - The "you-ish" Character.

I Am Someone Who Will Rise To An Occasion Like That. Other Occasions Can Defeat Me.
