You can&#8217;t live in fear of what &#8220;might&#8221; happen, or it will bind you up into a negative attitude, and it might cause you to make bad decisions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The way our economy is right now is already affecting people&#8217;s financial decisions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s causing people unnecessary worry about the future, about things that might or might not happen, and that&#8217;s a bad thing for people with bipolar disorder and their supporters.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You really shouldn&#8217;t worry about a future that hasn&#8217;t even happened yet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I mean, I know I always tell you to be prepared for the future, but there&#8217;s a big difference between being prepared and being worried.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">That&#8217;s why you need to be OPTIMISTIC!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Being optimistic keeps you in a positive frame of mind, while worrying keeps you in a negative frame of mind.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I&#8217;ve known people who had bipolar disorder who stopped being optimistic and instead became very negative, and then they got depressed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Then they got so depressed that they went into a bipolar depressive episode.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I&#8217;ve known others who worried themselves so much that it led to stress so bad that the stress and anxiety itself led them into bipolar episodes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You wouldn&#8217;t want that for your loved one, would you?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now which do you think will be better for your emotional health and the emotional health of your loved one?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I think it&#8217;s good advice for anyone, whether they have bipolar disorder or not to be OPTIMISTIC in 2009.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Do you agree or disagree with me?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FIND OUT WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT ME<br \/>\nVisit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarcentral.com\/testimonials\">http:\/\/www.bipolarcentral.com\/testimonials<\/a><\/p>\n<p>David Oliver is the author of the shocking guide \u201cBipolar Disorder\u2014The REAL Silent Killer.\u201d  <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hypertracker.com\/go\/Post\/BP_Kills_BlogAd\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Click Here<\/span><\/a><\/strong> to get <strong>FREE Information<\/strong> sent via email on how and why bipolar disorder kills.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hi,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have been talking a lot about the New Year to get you thinking so you have a great one.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With a new year comes a lot of changes, and that&#8217;s what I want to talk to you about today.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Many people make New Year&#8217;s resolutions in the hopes that they&#8217;ll be able to keep them, but how can they, when they not only didn&#8217;t keep last year&#8217;s,<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/bipolarsupporterblog\/bipolar-disorder-be-this-way-in-2009-or-else\/\" class=\"more-link pull-right\" rel=\"bookmark\">Continue Reading<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Bipolar Disorder?
