Being bipolar means facing ups and downs, unfinished projects, work problems, and plans falling apart. Over time, I learned not to see it as failure, but as a pause. When depression hits, I step back and wait. It’s not giving up, it’s saving energy for the right moment.

Because clarity always comes back, and when it does, that’s when you strike. In those moments, your mind is sharp, your ability above average. That’s the time to fight back, to recover what was left behind. Don’t give up, just pause, breathe, and counterattack.
