Does anyone with bipolar disorder have a low stress threshold. A little goes a long way? I just started my last semester of high school and I haven't had Spanish since the first semester of last year. I am in over my head in Spanish two. I don't know what to do. I'm thinking of dropping because I feel so unstable mentally and I don't know if i can handle it. I don't want to drop it because the college i may go to may require it. I might even have to take a year off because I'm so unstable in regards to the stress of bipolar disorder. Does anyone else struggle with stress like I do?
