My Story
1. I stay in bed a lot. I find it difficult to get up in the morning. Sometimes I sleep in and don't attend class. Many nights I find it difficult to fall asleep. If only I didn't wake up every 3 hours, I wouldn't have to sleep in!
~ Yao, Haidian, Beijing
2. In my depression, I felt more numb than sad. I was emotionless. My feet felt heavy, the door seemed miles away, and brushing my teeth felt like an impossible task. I just wanted it to stop, and I was crushed by the fact I couldn't make it go away.
~ Adela, London, UK
3. My weight changes consistently with my mood. The lower my mood, the more I eat. Pizza, ice-cream, french fries, anything oily will do. It's not that I'm hungry. I could be bloating and still eat more. When I'm down, food comforts and distracts me.
~ Juana, Havana, HA
4. It's not that I don't care about stuff when I'm depressed. I'm unable to care about stuff. I'm not indifferent, cold, or selfish. I want to be emotional, caring, and passionate. It's like the dentist put too much freezing in my head.
~ Atilio, Cuzco, Peru
5. I sleep 10 hours a night, and I still wake up tired. I stopped exercising hoping to save energy, but it just keeps getting worse. It does not matter if I exercise, rest, sleep, or watch T.V. - I feel tired, exhausted.
~ Louise, Abbott, TX
6. So it's called anhedonia. I thought it was called 'I hate life and it sucks, and there's nothing to do here'. When I feel this way, it does not matter what you say or give me. You could give me a ticket to a tropical paradise and I would not care less. Even if we went, it would not be any fun.
~ Saliar, Cape Town, WC
7. I felt extremely guilty when I was depressed. I felt terrible because I thought I committed murder. I felt devastated as I took a child's life and caused so much suffering to her parents. It turned out I was delusional about the murder. Strangely, there was nothing delusional about the intense feelings of guilt. They were real.
~ Brendon, Dublin, LE
8. I thought I was better off dead. I thought to end it all was the best solution. I made one last call, to the suicide crisis line. I had run out of options, I was at a dead end, and there was no light at the end of the tunnel. I'm glad I phoned. I haven't felt this happy and excited about life in 5 years.

9. A new laptop, office and a grandiose mind. I wrote articles about a variety of topics. I was sure I'd receive a Nobel Prize. I even quit my job, spent $3000 on equipment and office rent. Just one more bipolar mania fantasy, another empty bank account, and a predictable dive into hopeless depression.
~ Carine, Montreal, QB
10. My first university exam. I stared at the numbers. They didn't make sense. I tried adding, subtracting, multiplying them. It should have been simple. Yet, I couldn't add 5 and 5. By the time I looked at the second number, I forgot what I was trying to do. I failed. I got better. Then I passed the course with flying colors.
~ Emma, Sydney, NSW
11. My wife said there was no butter. I exploded and threw the milk against the wall. I never used to react like this. I'd always say, "no problem". During my manic episode, I felt like it was the last straw. No butter, no fantastic sandwich, and now no milk! I felt like breaking a window. I never thought I'd go to the doctor for a thing like this, but his treatment helped.
~ Alayna, New York, NY
12. I suffer from insomnia, but only when I'm manic/high. If the mood is up, I'll stay awake most of the night. I don't sleep more than 3 hours. I don't feel like I need to sleep, and actually don't feel tired. I'm not that productive when I'm like this because the following day I'm pretty tired.
~ Alita, Mexico City, DF
13. As a veteran miner, I work underground drilling rock. One manic day my thoughts were scattered, going way too fast, and I was unable to pay due attention to the safety of my co-workers. At the time, I did not know what was happening. I still drill rock, and if I'm distracted, I take the day off.
~ Wyatt, Calgary, AB
14. My son was talking very fast yesterday. I had no idea what he was trying to say. He seemed passionate and driven. He was late for school, but every time I tried to remind him he just ignored me and kept talking. This has been easier to endure lately, especially after learning this is a symptom of bipolar disorder.

15. "I need some chocolate. Do I have homework? Do fish breath underwater? Maybe I should phone Anthony. This world seems so messed up. My teacher was so upset. Wait, I forgot to clean the kitchen. Is it going to snow today? Right, I was going to clean the kitchen." Whenever my thoughts race like this and the ideas fly by I can't pay attention, and nothing gets done.
~ Aldon, Miami, FL
16. Thoughtlessness destroys my life. I hate it, I fight it, and I can't stop it. I lose my common sense, and end up hurting my relationships, my family, and my finances. I keep buying stuff I don't need, saying things I don't mean, and investing in stocks that I should avoid.
~ Lincoln, Vancouver, BC
17. Last time I had an elevated mood, I was like a run-away train. I was having dinner with my friends, but I could not help standing up and walking around as I talked. I kept going on about how I wanted to "get out" that night and play basketball. It was late, and most of my friends were heading home - they looked at me and asked me, "What are you on?".
~ Fabian, Toronto, ON
18. Terminal cancer in my brain. I'm sure I had it. I went to the doctor to request radiation. He found nothing, and referred me to a psychiatric ward. I was confused. I needed radiation, not a psychiatrist. Fortunately, after psychiatric treatment for my depression, I realized I did not have cancer. I thought this as I was psychotically depressed and delusional.
~ Osahar, Cairo, NE
19. The tears were rolling down my cheek as I was laughing. It felt extreme, unnatural and very uncomfortable. I would have traded all of my money to make it go away. My sister saw me and phoned for help. With the treatment I have now, I don't experience mixed state anymore.
~ Adam, Calgary, AB
20. I love being hypomanic. It's like I've got everything under control. My boss is happy because I work hard, I get the house clean and make dinners for all week. My friends think I'm funny and we all have a good time. I burn lots of calories at the gym. Unfortunately, it never lasts long.
~ Audrey, LosAngeles, CA
