I really find it annoying when people who know I have BP put my every outburst down as "acting bipolar". Or when I am feeling relatively ok, and actually do something like finish a project, clean my apartment, get exited about something -well, maybe she is manic?! I mean, not every thing I do or say is a symptom of BP.
But then again, I guess I have given them reason to think like that. And that I hate.
