I am bipolar, but I'm pretty much under control some irritability a little drama. My mother gets worried if I act *too* happy. I really am just happy, it's just that my default setting is chronic depression lol. This really pisses me off. She used to tell me I was too sensitive when I was a teen, when I showed too much emotion (sounds similiar to your mom) drove me crazy. Prob. would've brought up BP if that was something ppl really knew/talked about back then. also I wasn't diagnosed until i was 27 (which is avg. age I believe)
Sounds like your mother isn't very nice (sorry) and to zing you w/the BPD is really hurtful.
I agree w/farmergirl ppl tend to jump to conclusions!

I'm going to go and look at your profile.
