The bipolar disorder is an invisible illness because many people don’t want to discuss about it with anyone. People don’t view it as a part of the reality and so it becomes life altering. Sometimes it happen that people take a wrong decision to suggest others that there is nothing like bipolar disorder. But as we all know it is not always that to be become real, everything needs to be visible. So let us join hands and stand up for something that we can’t see.
#MakeItVisible Campaign
Healthline from USA has always been supporting these illness and now that they have stood up for the invisible one. You just need to share your story and help others understand how you are battling your illness sharing your photo and tagging Helathline. The organization will donate $5.00 to USA Pain foundation with an honest intention to throw some light on a subject which has been covered dark for such a long time.
RESEARCH BIPOLAR DISORDER
It has been found that by 2018 bipolar disorder will be funded with $75 million, which is about $2.50 per sick person and $100 per death.
About 250 million will be funded for prostate cancer, which is about $28 per sick person and $1438 per death.
Around $500 million will be funded for liver disease and $260 million for brain cancer.
It is not that the above mentioned diseases do not require funds but it is also a matter of concern as the numbers speak that what would be the worth for those who suffer from diseases like Bipolar which is not visible.
Don’t they require funds to be treated well?
People suffering from such invisible illness also have the same worth for their lives.
It is very simple that such sort of invisible illness kills lives and the victims are the ones who fall without a sound not letting anyone aware of their illness.
I just want to let people know that bipolar disorder is just like compound fracture where the bone is sticking out of your leg and you are not able to see it. This needs urgent treatment and care because people who suffer from such mental disorder are not able to express the pain that they must be going through.
Depression and bipolar depression are linked with each other. Thanks to the fact that none of us is perfect. If you have done a mistake, you get depressed and with bipolar depression you start beating up yourself because you committed that mistake and you feel you are not perfect.
You get upset and think over it again and again.
Let’s face it- mistakes are not the end of the world. We need to be aware of handling them and learning from them. Stop listening to your sick brain and follow your wise brain that helps you stride over these things.
So stop judging yourself and cope up with the mistake – fight back and don’t just fall like a half-hearted spiral .
Be kind and compassionate because you deserve your own kindness.
