Literature has always been something that culture has treasured since the beginning of civilization. What makes it so beautiful is how every piece holds a message that someone finds solace in. Whether the work is fiction or otherwise, all of them hold some sort of wisdom.
There are many perspectives that mental illness can be viewed through. There may be the perspective of the one plagued with the illness, and the one who has to deal with the person who is with the disease. Writing a bipolar romance novel biography, may involve ups and downs and tears, lots of it.
What is more interesting is how it would be written. Being in the position to write this would require quite the experience regardless if you were writing it in the perspective of one with the mental illness, or the lover who is with one. Writing it in a romantic perspective is a concoction of many intense emotions.
The story would definitely involve how the person deals with going to the psychiatrist for help, starting medication, therapy sessions and so on. That is only the tip of the iceberg. The episodes of swinging from mania and depression would be quite the chapter. It all basically is a mix of science and emotions explaining what makes the person get in these psychological states.
There are 3 major types. Bipolar I, II and cyclothymia. The first one can have manic episodes that can last for 7 days. The depression can then last up to two weeks. Now think about how this can affect any romantic relationship. The manic state is not even supposed to be a kind of euphoria, it may be something daring and destructive.
Mania could mean running around places, getting moments of epiphanies, euphoria and so on. This may be fun and many productive and creative things can come from it. But in severe cases, this may lead to the person making bad decisions. It does not help that the mentally ill person can barely get any sleep.
Their states of depression is no better either. Being the one plagued with feels as if there is a ball and chain that keeps you from getting anywhere with life. It becomes increasingly difficult to do everyday tasks and be productive. Being the lover that watches their beloved in that state also puts a kind of hopeless melancholy.
There have been many movies that show disorders, but one that is notable and is a biography is from 1999 called Girl, Interrupted. This was not at all a romance flick, but it accurately showed the life of those that suffer psychologically. The movie was based on the novel biography written by Susanna Kaysen, the protagonist.
Bipolar disorder does not always come from out of nowhere. All causes are biological and be from genetic to hormonal and environmental factors. There is so much to learn from this kind of romance biographic novel. A clear picture is shown about what it is like being with bipolar and how it also is like being with someone who has the disorder. It may not look nice, but at least there is an element of honesty.
