When I was diagnosed with bipolar disorder the year I turned 50, it was certainly a shock.

I knew it was a disease, and, like all diseases, was treatable. ↗

We were in the heart of the ghetto in Chicago during the Depression, and every block - it was probably the biggest black ghetto in America - every block also is the spawning ground practically for every gangster, black and white, in America too. ↗
