GO FOR IT! If you've read Kay Redfield Jamison's "Touched with Fire," you know that many many amazing artists, musicians & explorers had this diagnosis (or symptoms that indicate they probably had manias & depressions). Don't let this diag. hold you down. You may have to take breaks during school to deal with your various mental situations but you can achieve! Travel is a joy. My husband (who has no brain disorders) & I (with bipolar, seizures & OCD) have gone to Iceland, Germany, all over Scotland. I traveled to London & Kenya before I met him. Go for it!!
