I feel a tad bit better asking people who don't know me verses a T because that means I don't have to see the possible shock and laughter that may come from this.
This sounds like a subject that has pained you for a long time, and has made you feel ashamed about who you are. I think your first action should be to forgive yourself. No one can be good at everything, infact most of us are only good at one or two things in life. There is no need for you to be hiding behind your bipolar, you didn't decide that you would be bad at math, neither did you decide to have bipolar. They say there is no shame where there is no choice, and I think that is a really good thing to keep in mind.

Be proud of who you are, what you have accomplished despite the difficulties and enjoy being you, warts and all so to say.
