 I do my best to control my emotions but dealing with mental illness is akin to holding back a Dam. 

The water continues to rise and no matter how strong you think you have built the wall... sooner or latter the water will win and the emotions will flow as water over that dam.

If you've ever been swept away in a rip tide or strong current its not unlike dealing with bipolar. That helpless, total fear.
