Well the reality is you're right .... I don't think that your friend can understand - they don't walk in your shoes and nor are they bipolar......so....well yes they're going to pass comments that might upset you.

Maybe the fact that you were doing a presentation added an extra dose of hypo because you said you were dancing / singing / flying. Shhhh I won't tell you I've done some funny things in public when hypo too. I think alot of people who have been hypo have done .... something in public at some stage .....

I get how you interpreted the comment And today she told me get my **** together. Sometimes it's not that easy it's like someone saying "Get over your mood state" <- can be said in context of depression or hypo I guess. I don't buy into that it doesn't work like that.

Do people have hard time containing you?

Sure.

I have many many stories on that one
