Ranting

Ok, I know it has been a while since I have posted anything. But I have good reason. (At least I think I do). We finally got our office moved at work, so things should quiet down a bit.

I have been thinking a lot about my boys (men), they are 21 and 25. Makes me sound old doesn't it. It has been a struggle for them especially my older son. I have so many what if's with him. Both of them are Bipolar and ADHD. So needless to say life was very interesting (if nothing else) as they were growing up.

I have been thinking about the Bipolar part of our lives. I hear people talking about other people with Bipolar and they are so judgmental. Unless you have it or live with it in your family, people shouldn't be judging those that do have Bipolar. It makes me so darn mad. I here how people are afraid, or plain judgmental. Well it is an illness. It can be treated with medications. Just like diabetes or other illnesses. Luckily my boys are doing fairly well with their Bipolar and ADHD.

I agree there are those who can't handle their illnesses, but what about those that can? I know people that are doing very well and that take there meds and lead a normal life. Yet when someone finds out they are Bipolar watch out. Major Taboo. Well I think it is wrong. Whether it is mild or severe, it is treatable. I understand there are those that don't feel they need meds, but don't take it out on those that are getting treatment. Don't hold it against someone who does have it if you find out they do. No one is perfect.

I would appreciate your comments. Just needed to rant a little. I have heard People this week talking about Bipolar, and the more I have thought about the comments the more it upset me.

Well have a good day and thanks for listening.
