I think its possible for 99% of Bipolar people to find periods of stability and in those times you can learn coping skills of all kinds to help if you start to stumble.

Being on disability isnt a life long deal for everyone, Many go on it , takes pressure off you can focus on being healthy . It doesn't mean you are stuck for life, Disability reviews cases every year or 3 . Its not hopeless , its a gift.. A gift to allow you time to get healthy.

Really consider it. You have been in a horrible struggle for a very long time.
