At last nights training we had a guest speaker, who dicussed what it is like to live with bipolar I disorder. He told us what it was like to live with mania, depression and what it was like to be hospitalized because of psychotic breaks. The medication that he is currently on to help control his moods causes his hands and legs to shake all the time. At the end of his talk he, almost causually, said that while he has had to struggle a lot more than most, there are so many good things to experience in this world that the struggle has been worth it.
