If someone asked you right now how to explain bipolar disorder, could you do it without getting them completely confused.
Bipolar disorder is almost always associated with mood alternating back and forth from depression to mania.
However, this is not always the case.
The truth is the main symptom and characteristic of this disease lies in the ability to bend time in ways even Einstein could never have dreamed of.
Bipolar disorder scenarios are similar to that of a stoplight where cars are bumper to bumper and stuck.
The world seems moving sluggish and people are dull witted in pleasing you.
You might feel frustrated should someone take advantage of you and occasional burst into a rage.
During the beginning, you may see cars that will allow you to weave in and out of traffic.
Then you may see cars that won't even let you pass because they are so stacked, so close to one another.
Eventually you will get stuck that you'll end up slamming your head against the dashboard in extreme anxiety, needing to get out but can't.
Then the situation can be reversed.
You can be standing absolutely still.
Then your mind becomes engaged with some activity that trying to switch to another activity is clearly impossible.
It is like standing in the shower until the water runs cold before you can do anything else.
In some extreme cases, when you wake up, you can't seem to leave your bed.
A person who has bipolar can react faster and produce faster.
Suppose you are batter facing the pitcher, picture in your mind that the ball is approaching you, from there, you can already calculate where they ball's path is going to go.
Then when the ball is at you, you can give that ball a good smack with the bat.
However, even these things do not stay constant.
No doubt the clock will speed or wind down.
During your speedy mode, you swing at the ball a bit too early but you can still cope with these missed bats by doing it over and over and over again.
You burst into a rage because you feel it is taking forever for the ball to get to you...
when it really isn't.
You focus now on your anger and take it out on the bat, the ground, or perhaps the person who is closest to you in the moment.
Nothing seems to be going right.
At least that is what your mind is telling you.
Everything and everybody has turned against you even God.
Even computers are throwing up roadblocks and developing new ways with numbers to keep you down.
The situation is too much and you begin to break down and cry.
You don't forget those moments of standing still; those times in the shower and under the covers.
You even remember when you had energy.
In your mind, everything was possible and still is.
Space does not have enough room for everything you wanted to do.
Everything could turn into something different and you could experience a new world you owned.
These symptoms described can be attributed to bichronicity instead of bipolar disorder of manic depressive.
This type of person can experience a wide range from super speed to complete stand still.
Some days are more hyper in activity, others are lazy days.
You can begin something huge and then drop it the next second.
No matter how bad it may seem, bipolar disorder is treatable with medication and talk therapy.
It is a slow and long process that needs the patient's cooperation.
