I have not told any of my friends. Though I have told my sister (currently living at home). I am also going to try and quit smoking. The first manic and only manic episode I have had so far I believe was caused by me smoking ciggs a lot less and also the fact I didn't smoke any weed for a week prior to it happening.

I'll see how this pans out and hopefully all goes well. I only received my diagnosis in August and after they medicated me I went into a deep depression resulting in me dropping out of college. I'm relatively balanced right now though, but not if everything goes to plan >=D
