Why Go Lyrics

Cover art for Why Go lyrics by Pearl Jam

I've been institutionalized about 8 times. It is really stupid. It helped me with my problems and such but they also tried to tell me who I am, when they wouldn't know. Like if I were to cry they would say I couldn't, or if I was talking too much they said I couldn't do that. Every action was controlled. I hated it. And the funny thing is I spent six months in one place and they gave me the wrong diagnosis. People think I'm crazy and used to make fun of me because I am bipolar and I have been to the "crazy" house.

So in short terms I can most definitely relate to this song.

@CrimsonLips I am so sorry to hear your story is really sad but you prevailed so I am happy your story ends with getting better and that you got the correct diagnosis eventually. I never understood when peers tease and bully. Hopefully they grew up and were ashamed of their behavior. Good luck to you and keep your head up!
