That happens to me and I don't think that's bipolar reaching out. I think it's your personality and what you do. I used to be a social worker but just eligibility for state services no taking children. I never said no because I'm wired to want to help others. I feel compelled to help out and then realized I really didn't want to spend my energy on that. But I've had a hard time saying no since kindergarten! Or before! I think is something that can be worked on.
