Why I'm here
My story is just like everyone else's. Past hurts and pain accompanied with trying to blend in with the world around us as if all is well. At this point, there's not a need for the details of my life. What I hope to achieve by joining this forum is to gain some insight from others that struggle with mental illness, and somehow overcome being consumed with the darkness it can shed on not only our lives, but those around us that are dealing with it as well. Is it truly 'manageable'? Can we strive to achieve some sort of 'normalcy' (whatever that is)? Is there hope?

YES!!!
I can say that. If you have faith, of which I do, There is always HOPE and love and blessings> God is in my life. without Him I would be nothing. I have managed as a high functioning bipolar pretty much since diagnosis 6yrs ago. I\'ve pretty much always worked 5 days a week. No dramas there. Never lost a job.
