I hope you are doing well.<\/p>\n<p>I wanted to talk about something rather<br \/>interesting it today.<\/p>\n<p>I was talking to someone who wanted<br \/>to do some work for me. She said, &#8220;<br \/>I suffer from bipolar disorder, but<br \/>I am stable and can do well.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I asked her the following question,<br \/>&#8220;Do you really suffer from it?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She said, &#8220;umm well yea I do.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I said, &#8220;you really still do? How<br \/>are you stable and still suffering?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>She said, &#8220;well I don&#8217;t mean that<br \/>I am really suffering on a day<br \/>to day basis like in torture. It<br \/>use to be torture but now I have<br \/>it under control.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I then asked her if she thought<br \/>that language is powerful and<br \/>if she kept saying she suffered<br \/>from bipolar disorder, it would<br \/>make her worse&#8230;even just a<br \/>little.<\/p>\n<p>She thought about it and said,<br \/>&#8220;you&#8217;re right, I don&#8217;t know why<br \/>I said that, I don&#8217;t really suffer<br \/>from it. It&#8217;s kind of an advantage for<br \/>me since I learned how to manage it.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>So then I said, &#8220;why do you say<br \/>that you suffer then?&#8221; She said,<br \/>&#8220;I don&#8217;t really know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I said to her that it was interesting.<\/p>\n<p>From then we talked about the job<br \/>requirements.<\/p>\n<p>But then I thought how I wanted to send<br \/>out an email talking about the power<br \/>of language and how people can wind<br \/>up saying stuff that creates problems<br \/>for them.<\/p>\n<p>In my courses\/systems below:<\/p>\n<p>SUPPORTING AN ADULT WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>Visit:<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11\">http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SUPPORTING A CHILD\/TEEN WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>Visit:<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com\">http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p>HAVE BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>Visit:<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net\">http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I talk about this a lot. Also, when<br \/>you get my courses\/systems, and you<br \/>listen to the success interviews,<br \/>you&#8217;ll notice that people never<br \/>speak negatively whether they<br \/>have bipolar disorder or they<br \/>are a supporter.<\/p>\n<p>BIPOLAR SUPPORTERS SAY<\/p>\n<p>-My loved one is always in an episode<br \/>-He\/she will never get better<br \/>-Bipolar disorder is a nightmare<br \/>-Bipolar always ruins our holidays<\/p>\n<p>THOSE WITH BIPOLAR SAY<br \/>-I can never get better<br \/>-Doctors only care about money<br \/>-Therapist only want your money<br \/>-I am never stable<br \/>-I&#8217;ve tried every medication and nothing<br \/> works (this is super common)<br \/>-Bipolar disorder destroyed me<\/p>\n<p>I am sure you get the idea.<\/p>\n<p>My statements actually become what&#8217;s<br \/>called the self-fulfilling prophecy.

I am sure you know people<br \/>like this.<\/p>\n<p>Today you should make a list of negative<br \/>things that you say and systemically work<br \/>to stop saying them. Replace them with<br \/>positive affirmations.<\/p>\n<p>-My loved one can get better<br \/>-I can manage bipolar disorder<br \/>-Bipolar disorder is a serious illness<br \/> but it can be managed with proper medication<br \/> and treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Etc.<\/p>\n<p>Make sense?
