I experience that all the time, although I am not diagnosed as bipolar but I do feel it explains me (waiting to see pdoc). It seems like people will comment or have a problem when I say or do things, but the things people say to me or others makes me think...why is it okay for you? There are so many times I bite my tongue and want to kick myself in the @%$ for it when a person says or done something that even I would have been less of an @#& (in my mind) for, had I not bit my tongue in the past.
