Noah 26,941 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 http://people.com/music/mariah-carey-bipolar-disorder-diagnosis-exclusive/ Although she was first diagnosed in 2001 (when she was hospitalized for a physical and mental breakdown), “I didn’t want to believe it,” the superstar singer-songwriter tells PEOPLE editor in chief Jess Cagle. “Until recently I lived in denial and isolation and in constant fear someone would expose me,” she says. “It was too heavy a burden to carry and I simply couldn’t do that anymore. I sought and received treatment, I put positive people around me and I got back to doing what I love — writing songs and making music.” "I’m just in a really good place right now, where I’m comfortable discussing my struggles with bipolar II disorder. I’m hopeful we can get to a place where the stigma is lifted from people going through anything alone. It can be incredibly isolating. It does not have to define you and I refuse to allow it to define me or control me.” ⟡ ⋆ ˚｡⋆🦢⋆ ˚｡⋆⟡ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
highlikegaga 8,996 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 this is an important topic, as someone who lives with bipolar, i don't want to see any jokes about her being skinny or whatever. I'm happy she's getting the treatment she needs and is surrounded by positivity. With right medication, it can get better. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

teenagechrist 2,853 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 This is so brave, I'm glad she's coming out. During Glitter/Charmbracelet era she used to talk about how she didn't sleep at all or that she would sleep only 2 hours or something like that. I'm sad that she has to go through this but also very happy that she is in a better place now. feeling so hot tamale Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babel 41,430 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 She built this strong facade around her and tried not to show any signs of weakness, since the last time she did she went through hell, and people misunderstood her and called her cold and a diva for that, so this is very brave of her and I hope she gets fully support.

PlastiscGuy 20,889 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 To admit something like that, you really need to be brave. I'm so proud of her, she's amazing. A true legend PG. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunk96 2,526 Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I'm so proud of her for being open about this disorder.
