Your Self

By Ruhari Abdullah Monday, June 07, 2010

Hi when one is diagnosed by a doctor as having a bipolar disorder-thats ok,you probably are.Accept it with education "AskThe Experts"                             find out about the facts of the disorder-how it applies to your self and please take the meds,sllep well eat well and have a support group,a counsellor or someone who likes you you can share your life with.In my experience if you are exhibiting mania and disinhibiton etc -nmost people will shun you-the peole that care about  you will stress out-and the very thing you need -love attention and an audience has diminshed.Now if you are anything like me -I can get extremely enlightened ,creative,hyperactively literate foulmouthed and a improv comedians dream when I channel my self into -a comedy role-an entertainer, a professional actor.In the past I wasnt "getting " any acting roles -after my arrest,incarceration in a psyche unit,court appearances

Thats the trouble with no meds-for a weekend-feeling EUPHORIC BABY-flying au naturale Comedie Jus-now comedy I watch on dvd tv film and laugh out loud at the genius.Good not to be ACTOR addicted OR must PERFORM every hour of the day-MUST CREATE-must say -display-put energy out must...have my say.In part I disagree with most treatment dished out to "mentally well -ill people" by mentally ill professionals -so called.My speaking out on the street was some of my best work-if only the cameras were there....Ah ha-ye they were-as a professional actor -the script was my life experiences-just like the authors on this site and many other "recovery" writers actors etc -most people I know  are in recovery or  who have never -taken drugs,drank alcohol,snorted ,ingested,injected,smoked-had 8 hours sleep a night -never been mood swing maladjusted -are fit ,monogamous-have a flltime job-the people who can help us -are the median of sane people who are the majority of people.This is our target lifestyle-for extreme -hypomanic elated creatives with a down side of well you know who you are.Being "normal or in the middle is the goal to peace- serenity.bipolar starts from a place of peace -I believe goes to the extreme-due to the weighty theme of the topic-life.I believe as we are go high we try and leave thye grief cycle of mundane negativity and see the opening towards enlightenment-the charging of the imagination reduces the drag of negativity-we are supercharged with the experience of peace -that we become emotionally obsessed to share it -rather than distill the enlightened feeling-I know anything is possible -and it is.Why not?cancer does get cured. people do overcome grief and depression-suicidal tendencies can be abated and-there are miracles every day.Yes an abiding cynicism can give one an intellectual predispositon to mock and disbelieve-but an hypermanic comedian can find great heights of spiritual discourse by tearing asunder the mask of -affected institutional racism per se-or sexism or whatever mask society loves to hide behind.I believe Christ was extremely bipolar at times and told many people-do you think he was meek humble and never raised his voice-think of him turning the tables? Taking on the ose who chose to stowne Mary Magdelane-can you see him his bulging eyes-his rapid fire Nazarene tongue lacerating the oppressors-not with hatred -but with the connected voice of rabbinical wisdom superceded by the total immersion to the god head-yes one could say he was high-as high as God-now we who are non believers in spirituality can diagnose this to be nothing more than a bipolar episode-think about the high for a minute?What is at the end of a high is it limited-if we had a scale of moods 1 the lowest 10 the highest-isnt this limiting-surely the infinite high is the end result -there is no limit-therefore it is neither bi nor uni but infiniti-unbound mega euphoric
