I thought this question would be easy from the post title. But... then relating it to BP or not stumped me...

I'm going with no, I don't directly relate it to BP, because I was dx'd at age 36. So I've gone along this whole life and developed my personality without a dx. I'm well aware I've always been hypersensitive and have deep pronounced moods, but just thought it's how I'm wired, never gave it a name until I went to the pdoc.
