    Thanks, although I? really wish people would stop commenting on my appearance. It’s flattering, but I guess when I filmed this I shouldn’t have worn something low cut, because I don’t want people focussing on appearance. Although it’s flattering. I hope you’re doing better. It sucks when people don’t understand at work, that can be a really big issue.

    you are sexy as? hell. I’m bipolar too and recently got fired from my job for having an episode then went into a psych ward as a incare patient for my first time….I have a history of drug and alcohol abuse as well, but i don’t like to actively see myself as bipolar which doesn’t really help my situation.

    As Aragorn says in the Lord of ther Rings… “you are MOST? welcome!”

  • everythingamelia says:

    Thanks. I love them? with my whole heart 🙂

  • everythingamelia says:

    Shucks.. thank you? 🙂

  • everythingamelia says:

    Haha thanks for standing up for me. And to Joserod… bipolarness isn’t a? word.

  • jaxbus3000 says:

    that is a very very very ignorant thing to say. Do you think anyone chooses to be manic and depressed, feeling like crap everyday? For your information bipolar is a very serious disease. Perhaps you should read a good? bit on it before opening your big ignorant mouth.

  • Brian Self says:

    I second that gorgeousness and love the videos too. Honest and real! Best,
    Brian?

  • kevysasa says:

    Your? so gorgeous love your vids
    Hope your feel better

  • superbug1977 says:

    Loving your parents is a credit to your character?

  • everythingamelia says:

    You should make your own! The world? needs more people to talk about it. Especially young people! I’m so happy that it sounds like you’re doing better!

  • everythingamelia says:

    Thank? you for your comment. God Bless!

  • Shannon Cowan says:

    I want to thank you so much for making this video. We have a lot of similarities when it comes to being bipolar. I, too was an A+ student through middle school but I was very depressed. I believe I became bipolar after I went through puberty. I don’t even know if that’s possible though. I am in eleventh grade now and fully medicated but my 9th and 10th grades years were full of drugs and alcohol. I really am enjoying watching this series. It makes me want to make own. So once again thank you.?

    i suffer from adhd and am locked in the manic bipolar phase. You can imagine the horrific insomnia which lead to some heavy dependency issues. Serequel was a wonder for me but it made me gain alot of weight. Lithium sucked because it just ate my creativity and i love to write . Now i take nothing but the Lord sees me through. It helps me out tremendously to turn all that mania into prayer and sometimes i can help others. Bless you. You are? not alone.

  • radicalrandall says:

    There is hope! There is a way to live a normal life. Contact me at [email protected] put “Bipolar FREE” in the subject line. I will give you the contact information and? you can go from there with it. People have been living normal lives that were Bipolar1 …. you can break free! Thanks, Randall

  • everythingamelia says:

    Live in my head for a day and then tell me? that.

  • joserod2324 says:

    NOTHINS WRONG WITH YOU. Bipolarness anxiety is all? in your head. Anybody can overcome this.

  • everythingamelia says:

    I’m in? the Prairies. And thank you 🙂

  • everythingamelia says:

    Honestly, I doubt that taking drugs caused your bipolar. From what I’ve learned since making these videos, people who are bipolar and use drugs and alcohol often do so because they’re self medicating. You likely would have been bipolar anyways. Don’t stop taking your meds. It definitely won’t help you get better. But I know how that thinking can creep? in. Stay strong! <3

  • Frankiie G says:

    Wow! First off I want to say that you’re beautiful and I give you kudo’s for posting this! I can really see myself in you because my story is similar to yours. I started abusing drugs and alcohol when I was 17 and was diagnosed with bipolar at 19. I don’t know if the drugs caused my bi-polar or if I was always that way but I can never seem to stop beating myself up about the past or move on from it. I just want to be myself again and thinking that way can lead to not? taking your meds. 🙁 Sucks

  • everythingamelia says:

    I think personally that even if your subscribers don’t have mental health issues or can’t really relate, they will respect you more for? being open and honest. I didn’t start off making videos about bipolar disorder. I had a whole different channel for a year before I made these videos. I was so worried about what people would think. Honestly, you will likely gain the trust of your subscribers more, for being open and honest. I will definitely check out your videos!

  • beautyandthetube says:

    You’re really strong. I’ve been putting together my “message” on my past drug abuse and have been holding off for months to put it up because i’m so scared, i’m scared I will lose my subscribers, and? the ppl that trust me to give them advice, but I am finally realizing it’s just a part of me and I want to help others so i’m going to put it up. I LOVE that you made this. I’m also bipoler with depression/hypomania, Great story hun. I’d love if to check out mine in the next few days

  • jaminJ says:
