My life has been like a yo-yo extreme ups and downs one minute I’ve felt on top of the world other times I don’t want to be around I formed this strange depression after all the battles in my life just trying to keep happy each time I went under the knife now my heads bit funny, It goes off balance all the time one minute I can be crying the next I could be fine I don’t like having what I have but I’m not angry with this thing for I am still happy in my sadness because I like what life can bring so i will stick out my problem although many of us quit I just don't want to look back and say s..t was that life it although my life’s a battle its also been good too I have great friends and family and a supporting lady i love right through i think we have to step back appreciate the special things in this place so I will continue down my path with this true smile on my face

About this poem:
Many people you wouldn't know suffer from this problem, It can be brought on by many different ways, mine through battles of operations i've fought in my life, it can get dangerous to oneself if not treated so just take care of yourselves!
I have great friends and family and a supporting lady i love right through i think we have to step back appreciate the special things in this place so I will continue down my path with this true smile on my face
I am a sufferer too...I find writing poetry helps...Like you I have lovely friends and a family who loves me.
I suffer from Bi-Polar.Just loved your poem.You and i have got this far with this illness and i think and feel that we are very brave.Thanks for sharing your Poetry.

Thankyou for your kind words and taking the time I had a really bad day with it yesterday, really knocked me but i'm feeling a little better today and was just thinking of who was kind yesterday with their support, so I wrote this I feel for who suffers this, so many do, my lady does so we support eachother and know excatly what to say because we know how its like, I'm, still a bit down but there is a little piece inside that stays happy knowing I have help when I need it, Ive had Bi-polar for about 10 years now, a lot of grey times but its something that I live with and I'm glad you took the time to share and care with your comments

Hello rarecard.. One thing that stood out for me with your very good poem..was your strength of character along with your creative mind..
"so I will continue down my path with this true smile on my face" ..
be nice to yourself try not to isolate and invest time and energy in your positive relations with others...at least that is what I always tell myself...much respect...elo..
