Talking About Medication

"The art of medicine

consists in

amusing the patient

while nature cures

the disease."

~ Voltaire~

Unfortunately this is

NOT TRUE

for

Bipolar Disorder.

It will destroy you

before it cures itself.

This is your opportunity to talk about your experiences of being on medication, concerns about being on medication,

and share what medications have worked for you.

People are unreasonable, illogical

and self-centered.

Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives.

Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies.

Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.

Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.

Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest person with the smallest mind.

Think big anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight.

Build anyway.

People really need help but may attack if you help them.

Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you might get kicked in the teeth.

Give the world the best you’ve got anyway.
