A HUGE thanks to Ridge for sending me this wallet and supporting the channel! Sponsorships like these allow me to make these longer form and more time consuming passion projects. Here’s the site if you want to check these wallets out! > www.ridge.com/SISYPHUS
Definitely need a new wallet that’s not as bulky as my current one so will be using your link. It’s the first time I’ve actually found a TH-cam AD useful!
I was just looking at their site last night, so I got myself one using your code. Thanks for the heads-up!
Congrats on the sponsor! I already had one so this is good company :)
Eat shit for trying to sell me stuff.

“Being mentally ill is not an excuse for being a jackass.”
You’re right, Pete. But it should give us the benefit of the doubt when we sincerely seek to remedy our jackassery. We are as honest in our remorse as we are in our ignorance. It’s a disease. Would you call a cancer patient a jackass for vomiting somewhere inappropriate? Then don’t call a bipolar person a jackass for having to endure a manic episode whilst having to be in the spotlight 24/7, please. I can’t even imagine. I’m one of the lucky ones who gets to work out 99% of my manic jackassery at home or with my therapist or friends who understand how to keep me down and level. It’s all about having good people around you who understand you and your special needs.
I second that
@Mari Jay Monzon
I hope you’re having a nice, peaceful day.
💙💙💙
Same here and I agree with you.
Not only that but for I do at times post outrageous comments while in this frenzy state. I apologize to some expect for the ones that I know that a simple apology would be mute, to these postings I usual just make a parody of my own illness as a way to hint to others that even though it was me it wasn't the right me they were dealing with.
I see what you're saying and mostly agree with you. I'm not bipolar but I have other mental health problems that make me act irrationally sometimes. But, I think some people put there dont want to get better. Take my father for example, he probably has bipolar, hes abusive to everyone around him, and he does not want help. Hes NOT most bipolar people, but some are like him. I think people like this should be held accountable becuase if they're not then they will keep acting badly towards others. Even myself.
I should not watch this video
your vids are gold
oh jreg, i didn't expect you here
Two crazy underrated Canadian creators
Convert to Yeezyism please jreg
JREG kanye stan confirmed also wow great channels combined
I'm a bipolar artist. During my last mania I was planning to build a street legal car out of wood. With therapy and medication I finally figured out that I didn't really need a wooden automobile, but my therapist said with my talent I could have probably built it. Creativity without direction is insanity. I know I could build it, but what would a practical purpose be?
Should’ve done it bro that would’ve been dope
the purpose of art can be simply to be different, do it. don’t talk yourself out of it. why not do it anyways? you can do anything you set your mind to. doing takes you to more places than not doing. good luck friend I believe in you every step of the way❤️
neurotypicality is the disease of capitalism. build a wooden car you magnificient fucker
Do it, but on meds, so when you finish and take a step back you can say, "this is dope, but fucking why."
The car would run on water 😂
It's amazing that the internet has brought me someone talking about Nietzsche over a Street Lights cover. Sisyphus, thanks for aiming and hitting right at the center of my heart.
real fucking shit dude ❤️💯
Listen to Kanye’s unreleased track, “I Feel Like That”. If that doesn’t show you the polarization of Kanye’s mentality I don’t know what would.
Gamer-sama “I thought about killing you” has a similar message, talking about how he thinks about killing the manic side of himself through medication.
You can stretch back to 2005 to hear Ye's battles with his persistent issues right now, in Common's "They Say", his verse ends like:
"They say because of the fame and stardom
I'm somewhere in between the church and insane asylum
I guess it's messin' with my health then
And this verse so crazy when I finish
I'm just gon' check myself in - again"
This song is such an accurate depiction of mental illness and Bipolar Disorder. I think if everyone took the time to listen to this song, they would be able to extend a little more grace and compassion to his struggles. Mental illness is obviously not an excuse, but it is a reason.
Wow, I was going to comment this. Such a good feeling to see someone reference that incredibly underrated song.
It's not a reflection of the artist if the "artist" didn't write it. Unless you're calling him fake, then it's appropriate.
Thank you. I have Bipolar 1 disorder. Seeing everyone laughing at Kanye manic state is very sad to me. Because I know the crash he is going to feel after this episode. He will need to learn that he needs help and life is much better when the mood swings is lowered. I hope he finds within himself to start taking his medication and talk to his therapist.
Thank you for this video. I don't have to explain myself to people anymore. I can just send them this well made video.
Medication only hides the problem never solves it and no one wants to be medicated all their life
@@GUSX4NMAN That's not true at all lol. I'm on medication and it's literally saved my life? I take an anticonvulsant that works wonders, I'm not some walking zombie. It's because of comments and statements like this that made me evade seeking help for years. Finding the right medication can be tough for some but you need to realize this is an incurable life long illness, nothing is gonna make it go away it's just about giving you the best quality of life period
@@GUSX4NMAN WELL THEN INSANE BASTARDS JUST GO AWAY, THE WORLD HAS ENOUGH PROBLEMS DEALING WITH WEAK SCUM

@@fade4952 it can be healed with plant medicine and it only has to be administered a handful of times not taken everyday so i would say ignoring that is just as harmful. stripping people away of their potential
This may just be my favorite video by you. Bravo. Brilliant.
Didnt expect you here. Love your vids. Keep up the good work or whatever. You can choose what you wanna do
I loved the part about wallets
My manic periods always end with an acute self doubt.
It's like realizing your genius, and overestimating your capacity. But then when I hit the limit of my capacity I take that as proof of my stupidity. Then I realize my genius, and the cycle spirals out from there. Over and over, and over, and over. That is the nature of my life.
i feel this on a spiritual level
@@goodbye3771 my depressive periods always lead to self harm, then insight, acceptance, self improvement and then to manic periods leading to comfort, narcisim, overconfidence, lazyness, failure and back to Depression. The trigger for depressive periods i have found to be incomprehensible huge achievements. Hope you can get something from this.
I miss the old Kanye
Chop up the soul Kanye, set on his goals Kanye
I hate the new Kanye, the bad mood Kanye
The always rude Kanye, spaz in the news Kanye
i’m sure kanye when he gets back to baseline after mania doesn’t like the spaz kanye either. I say that because i have BP 1 and i always disagree with behavior/thoughts i had while manic.
I miss the old Kanye as well. Now he's just becoming more and more a trainwreck.
Thats so Kanye
Remember his album with spaceship on it.... those were the days.....
MK Ultra.
I have schizoaffective disorder which is like a mix of schizophrenia and bipolar on top of each other and let me say that I can't imagine a worse position to be in than Kanye. being a huge cultural icon which a huge overly supportive fanbase and media hanging on to my every word seems like the worst thing possible for delusions, grandiosity, paranoia and mania. I wish everyone would just ignore Kanye for a while and let him get better...
Which is why from my point of view; The greatest monster is Humanity ourselves.

everyone is suddenly acting like an expert on mental health and bipolar, but FINALLY, there’s a good take on kanye’s mental health.
Sophie this has been out for 2 years
He isn't going down to a low or depressed state, according to himself. He is Bipolar disorder type 1, do some research. If on YT, choose a channel where they KNOW what they are talking about, because this guy hasn't a clue.
I have Bipolar disorder, type 2.
Very short and simplified:
Type 1. From just a little worked up, increased energy, losing understanding and ability to handle money, buying things just for the buying. easily losing temper, less to no need for sleep, endless energy, can become maniac, which needs treatment in hospital. Can be a danger for himself and others. Grandios thoughts about himself, believes he is invincible. Psychotic, hearing voices and sounds, seeing things that don't exist but in the person's head.
Type 2. From becoming tired, at an extremely low level of energy, barely make it out of bed. Don't want to have people around, not talking to anyone. Can feel really good, but lacking energy, if being left alone and "charge the mental batteries".
Feeling low, life is useless. Not to be confused with being suicidal.
Someone said about this: "I don't want to die, just not live anymore."
Meaning I want to live, but not this life. It has nothing to do with being spoiled and wishing for a life in glitter and glamour, it can be without the bipolarity, perhaps some chronic pain, economical problems over the limit when you have any chance to sort it out, etc.
För
Down to a severe depression and a large risk of committing suicide. Medical treatment at hospital is crucial.
Mixed episodes. Can be shifting from one status to another in a few days or within an hour. Usually beginning with an edgy temper. Equally tough for the person as it is for the people around. Mental rollercoaster.
Some people swing between the darkest of darkness to mania and psychosis. Some only become a little low and lack energy, some become more energetic and maybe shouldn't have access to his/hers credit card...
You can find everything in between this, any different varieties.
I wrote "simplified". This IS simplified. Bipolar disorder is a complex and complicated disorder, and it really pisses me off when people with knowledge barely reach the ability to spell it, put up a 20 minutes video of bs, pretending it's some sort of facts. He didn't even know Kanye/Ye whatever, has type 1, and what that means.
Sad.

They also then cause a great amount of destruction and the biggest ones will consume everything around them until the universe turns cold. Appreciate the poetic power of the phrase but the implications don't quite follow
Ace360x .MLG well there is a positive and negative in everything.
@@npc1172 que?
The worst part is feeling this on a personal level.
There are worse things than to relate with one of the most successful and influential men of his time. See the mistakes he makes, and work hard to make sure you don't make them as well! We cannot control our circumstances, but we can control what we do with them ☺️
@@PimpolloMorales We should not work hard to try not to make mistakes because the mistakes are the symptoms of an illness; instead, we should work hard to cure the illness and we will know we have fixed it when the symptoms have left us.
This message is for my friend who unfortunately also suffers from bipolar disorder, if you read this, hope you stay strong and safe! -"bestboi" just a boy
I called it "zero to hero, then back to zero just as quick" when Homecoming played at school dances. Thanks for normalizing this even more.
Spot on
My father never held me as a boy 😔 he got stabbed last month 😔 my brother said he wouldn't cry if he died but dayuammmm that's pops.
Wut lol
I'm a writer and I have bipolar I. During my manic phases, I tend to have a burst of inspiration and creativity. Often, I would get what feels like a world-changing book idea and dump all of it into a single novel in a short amount of time. In the moment, I would think I'm going to change humanity with my totally awesome new book. Once the mania goes away, I would look back at my work and cringe at how terrible it is. And then I'll throw the whole manuscript away. Mania can bring on cool ideas, but I don't think it's good for writing sensible and understandable work. Also, great video! Love your channel! :D
As a bipolar recording artist Kanye is someone I have always had an eye on. He's gone through a lot, like bro has had a rough go at things, and to add on to it he's been in the spotlight during it all. It makes me sick how the media picks at him, especially when he's manic. I love the idea of using your mania as a superpower too. It really can be, most of my music has been written and recorded while manic, which makes sense. Mania is fucking amazing, it feels like a better version of cocaine, makes me feel confident and full of myself, it makes me feel like I could write and record a platinum album in a night. It also makes me toxic overreactive, blind to my faults, aggressive, incredibly hypersexual and honestly sometimes incredibly fucking annoying. It's a double-edged sword that often ends up dealing more damage to the one suffering from it than helping them. I also feel like what I produce when it comes to art is like that of a stimhead, the ravings of a man blinded by the overconfidence and lack of near masochistic sense of perfectionism that makes true artists great. But it's incredible. The depression is a whole different story but I kind of just figured I'd share a little on how mania can feel from my own perspective. I've never really found a good place to talk about bipolar, even the bipolar rated tends to be more of a slurry of people who are not treated arguing for treatment against the slurry of people who aren't (which isn't what I want.) I have a bunch of stories if anyone's interested, but I'd also like for this comment to be a place to share stories or feelings on the disorder if they chose to. Or maybe this will get buried. 🤷♂️
I appreciate your insight

I love you
He's an ego maniac like trump and thinks he's a chosen one. Ha. Ha. Ha.
I JUST got diagnosed with bipolar a week ago. Fun stuff. I do feel more creative when I’m in a manic state but not very grounded.
"POWER" and "yikes" are perfect examples of what someone suffering with this condition will feel during their manic states.
Love Kanye and always bummed to see him go through it. I’m 27. Been dealing with a lot of these feelings. I finally pursued my dreams of tattooing last year. I’ve become the best artist in my area after only a year. (I would usually never say that). I truly thought everything would be better after I got this job and achieved the goals I put in front of myself, but tbh it’s just as bad. I’ve been coming to terms that I might need help these past few months. Knowing my creativity will still be intact is really reassuring. Now I just gotta make the phone call. Thank you for this video
That's something that I've been concerned over myself. I've put a lot of time and effort into working as a pharmacy tech, got certified and all that, and have for quite a while now been hinging basically my whole immediate future and life satisfaction on starting this career. But I'm nervous that after I do finally succeed in that endeavor, I might find that not as much will have changed as I had hoped for.
At the same time though, with where I'm at in life currently, I feel like I'm trapped in a burning building and if I don't jump _real_ friggin soon I'm going up in flames. I definitely need to make some moves, I just worry that like, what if I jump out this window, and my ass just lands in the burning building next door, same situation different scene.
I even sometimes wonder if *any* of the windows actually lead to safety, or if it's just fire all around me. Then I remind myself that either way, I definitely won't benefit from standing still, and surely the fire can't be THAT big. I can do anything if I try, I'll totally make it! So I try to jump, but I trip and smack my head into the wall instead, and then I get discouraged and tell myself I'm just not good enough and I should just give up. So I resign to sit down on the floor, and watch the flames inch closer -- until I remember just how fuckin hot it is, and how badly I need to escape it. At that point I get all motivated that I can do whatever I desire to do, and so I try jumping to safety again, and bounce my head off the window sill this time (a bit closer than the wall), And then the cycle repeats,
You should post more of your work quite lovely and I subscribed!
Hey man I would love to see your tattooing have u got an ig page or something
Toni R yeah man. It’s jpxgomez. I’m not the best but I’m working on it
My dads bipolar and I’ve grown up my entire life surrounded by what I see as the beauty of it. I’ve became a huge fan of Kanye over the years because I feel a comfort in not only his music but his career because he reminds me so much of my dad. When I see him in these manic episodes I understand it at a different level then I’d say most and sometimes forget not everyone has had the experience of being around someone with bipolar disorder. The outlandish things he says and stressful incidents he may find himself in are so closely resembled to situations my dad can be in and I wish everyone could see the beauty of the minds of someone with bipolar disorder and the creativity that they bring.
This resonates with me so much, got quite emotional reading your comment. I’ve always loved Kanye’s music since before I could really comprehend my father’s bipolar disorder. Growing older I’ve come to realise that there’s a level of depth to Kanye that most people will never be able to grasp. People are often quick to label and ostracise others with the condition, but a world without the bipolar mind would be such a dull place. Though at times it can be devastating to deal with, this condition can also come with so much beauty.
Chris Morrish I completely agree, I try to share how truly amazing bipolar can be to people and even my father, who I feel can sometimes feel the pressure of society’s lack of understanding of his condition. In my eyes my dads a genius he can have trouble explaining things sometimes (like Kanye) but I still understand what he means and where he comes from and the art work he makes is beyond beauty it’s like a key to his soul. Someday I hope to share what I know about bipolar to the world so others can see how truly amazing the mind of someone with it is.

Could this possibly relate to Kanyes increased productivity working on 5+ short albums in 2018 for multiple artists?
In manic phases productivity and creativity can absolutely skyrocket, you dont even need more than two hours of sleep without even feeling tired after so little sleep. Could definitely relate
I also thought about it. And then I started thinking for the worst. But I mean, if he found "consolation" in religion, then its gonna be good
bipolar is not an excuse for erratic behaviour, it is a cause.
It’s an explanation, and a basis for understanding
i rewatch this so many times, this video is truly a piece of art
This is a wonderfully informative video-- I would simply add a single thing to it:
Another reason why many people with Bipolar shy away from medication is due to the nature of the treatment. In order to be treated, they need to find a combination of medications that work for them. This can take dozens of adjustments; and imagine that during this process, you lose those manic episodes and remain stuck in a mixed (or depressive) state.
This is the reality when it comes to seeking treatment for bipolar. It's not an understatement to say that pursuing treatment can sometimes be more torturous than the illness itself.
I love these videos, this is the first ad I’ve seen on this channel and I’m happy that you’re getting something back from these amazing videos
I'm bipolar and an artist/ musician & I think you did a really great job on the tone of this video. Thank you.
hey man this might get lost but i really appreciate your videos they’re just something great to dive into when i have the time i like the vibes thanks for your work keep it up man thanks
Sisyphus, I want to thank you so so much for making this video. Being a Kanye fan is feeling all the love and energy, the feeling of being greater than just 1 person in 1 world. Kanye, without a doubt, is a severely afflicted person and this is all anyone really sees in the media, but actually listening to his music you can understand the struggle he faces within himself and how he chooses to share his superpower to project feelings of grandiosity to people who can use it for better. I can't tell you how much it helped me to hear Kanye sing "I can't lose."
the music in this is perfect
Best part about your vids are the extra things that I want to look into and research after the video is done. You bring a lot of stuff to the table. Keep it up!
I concur! The epilogue was awesome! Well written my friend. I have schizo affective disorder which is a cross over disorder between bipolar 1 and schizophrenia. It gives me great strength to think of all the great people who suffered and benefitted from disorders like mine. I just got home from a psychiatric unit two days ago and this video brought me some peace thank you.
I was diagnosed as bipolar some 3 weeks ago and this video helped me to better understand myself. I appreciate this content more than I can express. Thank you for making this content. You have earned a subscriber in me.
That was beautiful. The epilogue was just the perfect way to end this video. This is the exact reason as to why i look forward to your videos. Hope you're doing well.
The level with which i relate to this video brought me near to tears. Thank you with genuine appreciation Sis
revisiting this today because of the whole "leaking the record deal" thing. i honestly feel very bad for kanye.
i binge these videos while working around the home. i really appreciate your rationality and understanding in your work.
God this was so good!Keep up the good work man.Your way of expressing things so fluently and clearly is mindboggling
This is one of my favourite videos ever and you’re a top creator currently, keep up the great work!
i love how street lights was playing in the back at the end, this was an amazing video highlighting and explaining points of bpd, honestly i probably have learned more stuff on this channel than school at this point
This was a beautiful video. This moved me to tears. Thank you Sisyphus.
Hey, just wanted to say thank you for this video!
I have bipolar I and i found the descriptive parts extremely accurate, especially the ones not that frequently discussed - people really wouldn't get why it's so hard to deal with it, even while already in treatment, if they never experienced mania. It's everything you've said and more. But the parts with analysis are what really got me. You know, it is really hard to give up on this great self, even if you kinda realize that something's off and the grandiosity gets out of hand. Really, the ethics are mostly to be thrown out of the window when you're that good without even trying to be, you do feel like some sort of divine force.
Then it ends, and if you aren't lucky enough to finish your work during mania, you sense of self-worth is fucked, which then gets amplified by depression - which is a completely necessary payoff for mania: I've had months long manic episodes, it got physically exhausting, yet it wouldn't stop, and I (unbelievably) wished I was depressed so I could get some rest at last. (For clarity: I was already in therapy when it occured for the first time, so I was aware that something was up - and I had an understanding of how to observe my state.) And then you can't function in society properly for months, until it hits you again. It's like wishing for summer in the cold of winter and then complaining about the heat, and it goes on like this every year.
And you really want to function well, but you can't comprehend the whole "slow and steady wins the race" kind of thing, because it has never worked for you, so you don't have a reason to believe that it someday will. You talk about that in the video, but I'm not sure that understanding that helps, the leap of faith is needed - and it's too long of a free fall, to be honest.
Here's the thing: I've been depressed for a couple of months now and the knowledge that mania will come back kinda keeps me going, because before my first time depression was all I knew and I was actively suicidal. It's much scarier without the prospect of this painful euphoria, but it just might cause the depression, and there's no way to check, really.
Basically, I have no idea how to deal with it, and you've managed to put into words why - it's important to understand a thing to deal with said thing.
My dad has bipolar I so seeing Kanye be the punchline because of his manic episode is really distressing. Thanks for making this video. It’s also allowed me to put into perspective my internal prejudices/inability to understand what my dad goes through. It’s rough seeing him oscillate between such extremes but I know, deep down, that he’s a fundamentally good person. Pete Davidson’s take on mental health is far too reductive when you’re looking at something as complex as bipolar.
My dad has bipolar and I think you have covered the condition incredibly. He
Can be so low but when he’s on a high he can create incredible art and becomes eraticly happy it’s weird, but I think you have covered the condition very well
this has helped my understanding of this mental disorder and how it impacts those in a creative environment, thank you sisyphus
i feel like a lot of people need to see this now. before ye becomes a statistic
Hi Sisyphus if you read this I want you to know that the portion where you point out bpd patients don't want to be cured snapped me back into reality. I've since sought help. Thank you so much for making this video.
I really love all the videos on this channel, this one especially. Great insight and the lesson about how bipolar individuals experience mania is something that more people should hear. I feel like bipolar is shrouded with negative stigmas while people never understand the whole picture. The part which mentions how mania can make our families afraid is basically the only perspective that the general population takes when the word "bipolar" is mentioned. And what's more, the families of bipolar individuals often don't get the whole picture which can lead to alienation. It's very sad, and there should be more open talk about bipolar disorder in order to combat the hottible stigma.
Who would've thought that after watching this channel for over a year now, helping me get through the painful nights of loneliness and depression, that a video with a sponsor from Ridge wallet about an artist I don't even like and a disorder I don't even have would be my favorite video from you?
Man, fantastic video. I'm so happy to have found your channel. You're really well spoken!
That poetic ending was beautiful. Overall a great video, that's what I've come to expect from this channel.
Honestly this channel is helping me through so much, I don't want to go into detail Although, i do want to say thank you.
Please keep making videos truly inspiring
Informative and clear video with solid support and effective writing throughout, leading up to a compelling conclusion.
Thank you so much for this. Kanye is my favorite rapper/producer/I relate to him and his music a lot and because of that I’ve grown somewhat attached to him. While people were shitting on him during his episode on twitter a week or so ago I was so mad. People nowadays are so “focused” on mental health yet seemed to bash him mercilessly, although I believe part of it was people’s lack of awareness around bipolar disorder, it’s understandable how they were angry about the comments he made. I couldn’t help but think of Saint Pablo when I saw the comments, people don’t realize how many intricate layers Kanye has to him. Anyways. I was a bit hesitant to watch, as many people just call Kanye insane and look at him like a dangerous creature, but you really did an amazing job. Not just describing Kanye’s bipolar disorder, but bipolar in general. The high of manic episodes, then the crash into desolation/depression. The part at 8:34, R.D Laing and Foucault was a great part too, something I often contemplate myself and it was cool to learn that there are philosophers looked even more into it. The epilogue was super beautiful. I never usually comments on videos. But, wow, I don’t really know how to put into words how well made this video was and how much I loved it. Thank you man 👍
I love the videos on this channel and I am so happy to see more videos on TH-cam about Psychology from both a philosophical but also scientific standpoint. Really great videos on so many interesting topics
Happy to you get a sponsor and continue growing!
the ridge really does pick its sponsorships well... congrats and love the videos !
Love these pieces on contemporary artists. This & the Donald Glover vid might be 2 of my favourites from your channel, thanks man :)
As someone who suffers from Major Depression, I am grateful for this incredibly sensitive overview of bipolar disorder.
it's interesting that you talk about ontological deprivation. I recommend you look into the way we class symptoms of psychosis and in particular schizophrenia as being positive, negative or disorganized. the positive symptoms, like hallucinations and delusions, add something to the "normal" self, the negative, like deprivation, poverty of speech and sensitivity take something away and the disorganized symptoms muddle and distort the self. pretty useful ways of viewing different symptoms actually and the idea of symptoms being additive, subtractive or distortive can be applied to most mental illnesses as a helpful way to think of parts of an illness
You should think about making your own commentary.
This is the best video I've ever seen. Thank you!
Incredible, informative and relevant. I hope this gets more young people thinking about psychology and studying (insert ANYTHING here) more closely and with enthusiasm.
One of my favourite vids you made so far man. Very interesting
That final thought hits hard. I can't help but already feel like it will be sticking with me all day.
This was really well put together, I liked it a lot.
I genuinely love your videos
Thank you for making this.
To be bipolar is to be your own greatest hero as well as your own worst enemy. It is seeing yourself soar to heights that you never knew possible but also to carry the cross of failed endeavors everywhere you go. It is to be loved or hated by those who you’ve met, based solely on the time that they met you. It is to often feel that others do not understand your true psyche, though it can not be held against them as you don’t understand it either.
Bipolar 1 as well. Thank you for this. This is stunning.
truly, truly great video, thank you for your work
Housecat's music is so chill. Just became my new study music. Thank you
I hate being a Kanye fan , it's awesome

I really like the music from housecat, and I’ve only been listening to him for a couple minutes. Thank you for introducing him to me! Also, the video is quite interesting and thought provoking, thank you making it.
If Kanye had got himself a ridge wallet maybe none of this would have happened.
Beautifully made!
Great video man, nice utilization of the music as well.

Thank you for making this video. There is such a negative stigma about bipolar.
I have Bipolar 1, with mixed phases (both manic and depressive at the same time). I have stopped taking my medication over a year ago. You say that it is only the delusion of mania that makes one think their medication will neutralize them too much, but I can tell you from experience that it really can do this. When medicated, my mood was stable... a little too stable in fact as I became extremely nonchalant. I had been bipolar for as long as I could remember and I was not ready for this stability. Some of the most stupid stuff I did was while I was medicated, simply because I had vices and immaturity that my bipolar disorder kept in check. I will not say that a bipolar person should not take their medication, but that medication is only surface treatment: therapy is also very important, and I may even say that in my case it is even more important. I did not actually get therapy, rather focusing on religion to become more mature and have more watchfulness, although now that I'm doing somewhat okay personality-wise I'm thinking of seeing a doctor again soon.
you are me
so great to see so many bipolar people in the comments sharing their experience, makes me feel less alone.
