Bipolar Quote by Cori Morton
“You have a choice when you are bipolar (everybody does)... either blame the world and scream out how messed up your life is because you're not normal or you can realize that you just have a disorder and that can't stop you from being who you are, what you want to be, or how you live. Nothing can stop you from living the life you want except for you.”
