Thank you all for taking the time to watch this emotional video documenting what it's like for me to crash or cycle from hypomania to depression with bipolar disorder. I know it's probably not easy to watch, especially if you know me personally, because it's not the happy, fun "me" that you're used to seeing. But this is reality for me some days, and I feel like I'm doing a disservice if I don't share that reality with those watching.

I want everyone to know that this is not a cry for help or a plea for pity or attention. I have loving and supportive family and friends who do a wonderful job of taking care of me when I need them, as well as the care of a medical team. I simply cannot sit back and portray my life as roses and perfection every day when that just isn't the case. If all I did was show the highs, I wouldn't be helping anyone.

So this is the real side of things that doesn't always get posted. This is what it's like when those dark feelings start coming on. For anyone out there in the same shoes as me, please seek help and know that you're not alone.

I've attached my previous mental health videos below, so if you haven't yet seen those, check them out. As always, make sure to like and subscribe! Thanks!!
