Bi-polar disorder takes away your true identity

Posted Feb 28 2011 5:49am

until you question who you really are.  I knew at one time the kind of person I was, now I am lost.  Who is this person in my body?  Am I the person that sits by quietly and never over reacts to anything and could calmly watch the world fall apart in front of her and have no feeling about it what so ever? 

Or am this person that is filled with such incredible sadness, that I can not function.  I wake up only to look forward to my next nap.  Who are these people?  They are inside my body, is this who I am?  Or am I the person that has boundless energy and boundless ideas and feels like I can fix everything if I could just get so,eone to stop and listen to how truly intelligent I am.  Am I the person that can not finish one thing before I start 3 or 4 more and usually crash before I get any of them completely.  Am I the person that does completely outragious things that has absolutely no concern about the outcome at the time?

 Am I all of these people combined togather to make one crazy mess of a person?  Or am I really none of these people at all and just like all of you dealing with a disorder that takes control of our lives and our minds and makes us do things that mormally we would never do?
