As a person living with bipolar disorder, I do my best to stay aware of anything that may cause a relapse because, while it may sound dramatic, it could be deadly. When I hear of others’ relapses, I am terrified the same will happen to me, so I want to know what happened. I crave those details, not because I’m nosy (I am), but because I don’t want it to happen to me. I want there to be something they did that I can avoid. If there is a cause, I can avoid it and stay well. I feel so far from safe if there is nothing other than this insidious disease doing what it does.
