But I have<br \/>to say this. It&#8217;s important.<\/p>\n<p>I know I will get a whole lot of<br \/>hate mail from this email \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>I am actually getting ready to take<br \/>off for the gym and I was thinking about<br \/>something that happen to me yesterday.<\/p>\n<p>We just setup some super duper <br \/>system that monitors whether or not<br \/>emails that I send are actually getting<br \/>to the people I send them to.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, I had to look at my entire list of<br \/>email addresses in my database. It&#8217;s a ton<br \/>like over 190,000.<\/p>\n<p>I was scanning the addresses and looking<br \/>and noticing something strange.<\/p>\n<p>Before I tell you, I have to explain<br \/>something&#8211;&#8220;the front part&#8221; of an email<br \/>and the domain name.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at an example email. This <br \/>email does NOT work.<\/p>\n<p>davidtest@leverageteamllc.com<\/p>\n<p>The davidtest is the front part. The leverageteamllc.com<br \/>is the domain. I have no idea what &#8220;the front part&#8221;<br \/>is really called.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, as I looked at my list I saw this:<\/p>\n<p>crazyoldlady<br \/>manicmike<br \/>Iamcrazy<br \/>crazyoldwoman<br \/>insane247<br \/>(note, probably means 24 hours a day<br \/>7 days a week)<\/p>\n<p>NOTE-<br \/>I didn&#8217;t include the domain name to protect<br \/>the privacy of each person. Plus I don&#8217;t want<br \/>a thousand people writing them.<\/p>\n<p>There were TONS of these people.<\/p>\n<p>I thought to myself that&#8217;s really<br \/>strange.<\/p>\n<p>Why in the world would someone internalize<br \/>the worst part of bipolar disorder.<\/p>\n<p>Then I thought about a whole bunch of<br \/>things in my life.<\/p>\n<p>People who acted a certain way because<br \/>they thought they should be that way.<\/p>\n<p>My one friend that had a tattoo that<br \/>said &#8220;simple insane&#8221; across his chest.<br \/>For years he got into so many fights<br \/>because well he thought he had to<br \/>because he was suppose to be tough.<br \/>After he stop internalizing being<br \/>&#8220;insane&#8221; he is on his way to becoming<br \/>a millionaire. He made like $500,000<br \/>last year. 10 years prior he was facing<br \/>jail time.<\/p>\n<p>Another friend of mine that has a big<br \/>gigantic tattoo which I can even write<br \/>here. The tattoo means that he doesn&#8217;t<br \/>follow rules. For years he was off the wall<br \/>and always in trouble. Today, he is reformed,<br \/>getting married has a good job, but for too long <br \/>he internalized craziness.<\/p>\n<p>There was a person on my list with bipolar<br \/>disorder. Her front part of her email was<br \/>like crazyjane. I first spoke to her<br \/>when I started this. <\/p>\n<p>I had a long one hour talk with her and<br \/>said to her, &#8220;if you keep doing what you are<br \/>doing, you&#8217;re going to be dead.&#8221; She was shocked.<br \/>I said, &#8220;I give it straight. You are too talented<br \/>to keep acting crazy. I told her to lose the email<br \/>address. Stop acting like a fool. Follow my system<br \/>(which her parents bought for her), find a great<br \/>doctor, listen to the doctor, get a therapist,<br \/>and do good in life not bad and stupid things.<\/p>\n<p>She actually listened. Today she is incredible. She<br \/>is married. Has a great job. Stable. Volunteers<br \/>to help other people with bipolar disorder out.<br \/>But for years, she internalized craziness because<br \/>she thought that&#8217;s what she was suppose to be.<\/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>You hear story after story of people with<br \/>bipolar disorder that make this fatal mistake.<br \/>The thinking goes like this.<\/p>\n<p>NOTE-I am going to say it like the person<br \/>who has bipolar note like it&#8217;s from me.<\/p>\n<p>I have bipolar<br \/>Bipolar equals craziness<br \/>I am going to act crazy because I have bipolar<br \/>I am going to do everything I can to go along<br \/>with crazy things&#8211;like change the front part of<br \/>my email to have a word like crazy in it because<br \/>that&#8217;s what I am suppose to do\/be<\/p>\n<p>See how it works?<\/p>\n<p>This is bad.<\/p>\n<p>Now, one last thing. This goes along with bipolar<br \/>supporters as well. But in this way.<\/p>\n<p>THE BIPOLAR SUPPORTER<\/p>\n<p>The bipolar supporter can think like this<br \/>and this causes the person with bipolar disorder<br \/>to do the exact opposite of what should be done.<\/p>\n<p>Things like this are said and thought by the<br \/>bipolar supporter:<\/p>\n<p>-They will be &#8220;crazy&#8221; forever<br \/>-They&#8217;re so crazy<br \/>-Don&#8217;t expect much from them, they are out of it<br \/>most of the time<br \/>-You can&#8217;t count on them because they&#8217;re crazy<\/p>\n<p>See how this thinking works. That&#8217;s not made up.<br \/>I hear it every single day from all different <br \/>bipolar supporters.<\/p>\n<p>So in summary.<\/p>\n<p>If you have bipolar disorder, don&#8217;t internalize<br \/>craziness. What kind of front part do you have<br \/>for your email? How do you think about yourself?<br \/>Do you think bipolar disorder equals crazy?<\/p>\n<p>If you are a bipolar supporter, realize your<br \/>thoughts about your loved one influence him\/her.<br \/>Be careful how you think about him\/her.<\/p>\n<p>Hey, I have to run and go to the gym.
