Dealing with mental health issues.
Step 1. Talk about it.
So I am
I used to be quite manic
Disruptive in the town
Born with it, and no cure
Brain chemicals upside down
Sleep? I had no need of
Mind full of racing thoughts
I in a trap of mania
A manic trap was caught
I had delusions (grandeur)
Thought I was like a god
People simply humoured me
Thought I was rather odd
The video included shows
A manic in full flight
He is what I used to be
When at my manic height

Bipolars need three things: Understanding, Acceptance, Support
I appreciate your openness and honesty with your bipolar experiences. You relay them very well, and paint a picture that is crystalline to readers. And you are right; we need understanding, acceptance, and support — these three things are integral to being understood and assisting us during our relapses and aiding recovery. Family, friends, and kind others to be there for us can really make all the difference.
