So if ever you see someone with mental and emotional issues, be kind.

Oh wait, before you air concerns, I'm fine right now. Exhausted, but my mind is in stable mood. I'm just fleshing out my thoughts because I can't post in my socmed.

Flips can be narrow-minded in these things.

Happeh Balemtayms, btw.

Hans, can you speak to your other personality? Disclaimer: I heard from my friend who's majoring in psychology, her prof said bipolar could make a council of their many personalities inside their head, and have tendency too twitch whenever another personality is controlling

No, I have no 'other personality'.

My condition is all about my uncontrollable emotions that eventually affect my decision-making. Like, I can be sad and depressed for no reason in one day, and super happy in the next.

Or I can rush to things without thinking much about it, then regret it later.

It is different from what my friend told me... are there many type of bipolar?

Yes, there are several types of bipolar, but all are about emotions, not some 'personality' hidden inside one's mind.

I know because, while I'm no psych major, my doctor is the Philippine Ambassador to international health institutions, and he explained my condition to me.

@Mellohwa isn't that multiple personality disorder?

So if someone gets weird by bringing out multiple personalities, then claims it's bipolar, well, it's not.

Bipolar can lead to schizophrenia, though, especially in severe cases.

Or it can also be someone wanting attention to themselves, which, in cases of influencers, is highly likely.

OHH so bipolar is emotion based... never knew about it, thanks for sharing hans

That's what I first thought, @Anemic_Vampire , when we were having that convo about bipolar; she said that... but as she is the one who's a psychology major, I didn't doubt her lol. Maybe she remembered it wrongly and confused the two.

Or the mood swings can also be mistaken for multiple personalities due to the fact it can change as fast as switching a light off for no reason at all.

We were talking about it because someone from my campus committed suicide, and she left a note about her bipolar disorder. Glad you're okay, Hans!

Well, no matter.

Even if it's all about emotions, it is still dangerous if left untreated. I mean, I've undergone medications and still has suicidal thoughts from time to time.

So what I mean by this post, aside from fleshing out my mind, is mental issues aren't weakness.

Thanks! Imma be honest, I've already 'logged' 20 suicide attempts.

But! I'm fighting the urge. I don't want my students to use me as their example.

And, I'm trying to 'save' and care for them as much as I can. Thanks to social media, teenage depression rate is climbing up.

Those kids just need someone to talk to and listen to their complaints.

Thanks to social media,
