I get tired of people treating BP as if it were cancer. Yes, we have an amplifier attached to our emotions, but that's all it is. It doesn't make limbs fall off. It doesn't cause blindness or Deafness. It won't ever cause you paralysis. You will never wake up to find you've lost your ablility to speak. And yet we as a group get quite whiney and moan a lot as if it did any of those things.
I'm not discrediting the feelings it causes, nor am I denying that it's a real problem in the mind. But stablility is Definately attainable. All you have to do is find the right mix of diet, exercise, medication and environment. Notice I said environment. People seem to skip past that one, but anything that cause mental anguish can't be good for anyone, let alone someone who's Mental Health is dependant emotional harmony.






u emotionally stress me, u are part of my environment, u used to be part of my diet and exercise, (which u spelled wrong), but yet i for some odd reason, don't know why, but i do still keep talking to you. I haven't killed u,....yet....hehehehe. but just givin ya shit dork.... had to put that out there

At last, something that makes sense to me! I have a dear relative who has BP, who I believe, functions at a high level, takes care of her family, and so on. Yes, she has ups and downs, but doesn't allow them to debilitate her! I, myself, do not have BP, but many other serious health problems, which I like to think I handle with grace and not cry every day about how "bad" things are for me. Thank you for such an interesting post! Judy
