I do think that people have less tolerance for unstable mood and behavior in a person of more mature years . . . more is expected. I feel developmentally behind my age cohorts. It's very saddening.

Yes, absolutely. The older I get, the crazier I seem to get. It is very embarrassing for me. Although I'd have to say that, for me, I think the big difference is not so much in terms of getting "crazier" as it is in controlling it. I think I was always clearly mentally ill. But prior to around age 50 or so, I was able to "keep the lid on." Since then I've just gradually lost more & more control of it.
