Managing Your Bipolar Symptoms

Now that his symptoms are managed, Stuart finds that he’s enjoying life.

About Bipolar

“On the whole, my life, I think, is just like anybody else’s. I’m very successful now at what I do. I advocate for other people like me.

“I’m very well-educated about bipolar disorder now, and I have great relationships with friends. And, now as some of my friends say to me, I can have fun in a shoebox. It just doesn’t take a whole lot. I enjoy being around people, which is completely different than before.

“That’s...that’s the major difference in my life, I think. It’s that life is enjoyable. There are a few times of some ups and downs once in a while, but they’re very infrequent.”
