When singer Macy Gray was asked during an interview with media outlet Daily Mail in 2007 she revealed her bipolar condition. Gray stated, “I used to be on medication, but I am not anymore, so if I was bipolar, I guess I am cured.” She went on to talk more about her condition in 2010 when asked how it felt to be bipolar. Gray responded, “It just has very extreme ups and downs. It’s one thing and then another, and they’re always opposite.”
