[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 496741, member: 3305"] Midwestmom, I so agree. I mean there are plenty of people around the world who have experienced incredible atrocity and yet they grow and thrive. It can be done. Genetics is likely the culprit in all this. It was sad for me as a young adult...who did not "know" I had Bipolar Disorder, to be reminded by different people, of what a difficult child I was. I think it caused me to become even more depressed. I just remember as a young adult (25) feeling like I need to compensate for being "such a terrible child" by being a "perfect adult". I had no balance in my life in this way if you Know what I mean?. I wish Bipolar Disorder was well-understood when I was a child so that I would not have necessarily felt such extreme guilt over some of the behaviors I exhibited as a child...what a "difficult" child I was etc. LMS [/QUOTE]
