“On average, we spend far more of our time in depression than we do in mania or hypomania—by a ratio of three to one for those with bipolar I, according to a major 2003 study. Estimates go much higher for those with bipolar II.”
John McManamy, Not Just Up and Down: Understanding Mood in Bipolar Disorder

“Call it the bipolar’s dilemma: Take a chance and we risk losing control of our brains. Play it safe and we isolate ourselves from humanity.”
John McManamy, Not Just Up and Down: Understanding Mood in Bipolar Disorder

“In addition, we can make a very strong evolutionary biology case that depression is our body’s way of telling us to slow down from our over-exertions—to rest, heal, reset all our biological systems.”
John McManamy, Not Just Up and Down: Understanding Mood in Bipolar Disorder
