I wish all people could understand that mental illness is just that, an illness. It is not an excuse to be blamed for any personal issue with us. I'm so sorry you're having this problem at work. I do have to agree with Lady.. email is apparently dangerous territory for people who are bipolar and honest and straight forward.

I had a professor once who called me on my cell phone to ask if I was going to turn in my second paper on time (I had needed a 2 day extension on the first one due to a medical (not mental) issue..I had turned in the rough draft a week earlier for proofing - it's not like I was goofing off). He tried to justify it by saying he just needed to know if I was going to be able (mentally) to get the paper done in time. I was so insulted I turned the paper in 2 days early...which was also met with rudeness. Apparently it needed to be on the deadline.
