Today, as part of National Mental Illness Awareness Week, is Bipolar Disorder Awareness Day. NAMI (The National Alliance on Mental Illness) encourages people to join the Bipolar Disorder Awareness effort. You can play a part in the event by:

-Learning more about the symptoms of bipolar disorder.
-Participating in a free mental health screening.
-Reaching out to individuals who have bipolar disorder.
-Encouraging individuals with bipolar disorder to seek treatment.

Bipolar disorder has played a larger role in my life than I had ever imagined possible, considering I don't have it myself. But nevertheless it has, and continues to shape, my life. Peace & love all.
