It's a little difficult for me to read that post since the whole nature of my disorder at least (bipolar disorder with extreme anxiety) is that I am hardly ever the person I was the day or week or month before. I find it's best for me, when I'm doing well, to hold back on extreme confidence because I am so prone to going south when things are going good. So I feel like if I went by what you're saying I'd always be alone.

My post was sort of that I've accepted that about my disorder and myself - that it changes and that it's ALWAYS there treated or untreated. I don't think I can wait for perfection, nor do I believe I should. So then the question is how do I introduce someone else into my world? I'm not saying I would date when at the point of hospitalization or extreme mania, etc, but I think I'd be lying to myself if I said I would only date when I know yesterday, today, and tomorrow will be stable.
