I sometimes see info-graphics that will name a few, but I have never come across a really good list of well known people that have Bipolar. So, here it is.

Had no idea Stephen Fry, Britney Spears and Michael Phelps were diagnosed with bipolar 😱 Just goes to show you that even the most gifted and revered are vulnerable in some capacity.

No probably about it. Bipolar is definitely a super power. I’ve reached a point where I sometimes feel sorry for people who have never experienced hypomania. Those poor, unfortunate souls.

I think about this sometimes, too. Honestly they are missing out on how colorful my world can be. They live in a box of 64 I’m literally the Creator of colors.

I also feel like we feel so deeply, we have the potential to be very empathetic of other people and their struggles.
