Deplin seems worth looking into, never heard of it. As for tea, You had no way of knowing I was a "tea fiend" so I will overlook your anti-tea agenda. For me, giving up tea would be giving up a passion that I've considered to be healthy. Faith... I have a hard time believing in deities, for faith has always eluded me, but i find spirituality ("faith" in the truths we can observe) is a new friend to guide me in dark times.

Oh and I don't think I called you "alcoholic", genetic. I asked you if you had had experience with the relationship between alcohol and bi-polar. alcoholic is a term that few take lightly.
