just me, i selectively tell ppl about being bipolar, etc. there is so much social stigma re this out there. i'm not ashamed but it's a way to protect myself from ppl who are not educated about our MI.
as for you having the life you desire i believe now that you're on meds you will find you're balanced in mood once you hit the therapeutic level. i returned to a corporate career and my MI didn't interfere from me being quite successful. not bragging, btw. hopefully the sedative effect you are experiencing will lessen as your body gets used to it.
