I think that we just don't know how to respond, what with like at least 3 different ways to feel about something according to mood that we over analyze things. It's this unsuredness that hesitates me. Like when depressed, the answer is a "No". When mixed, it's a "Hell no". When manic it's a "Hell yeah". When at base, "let me consider.."

Sometimes I'm afraid to answer because I'm afraid that the answer will be bipolar influenced and that I'll feel differently about it later- confusion causing dissociation.

Bipolar breeds low self-esteem which leads to lack of eye contact- I think. I have to force myself to make eye contact or at least look at their noses. When talking to someone if I remember.
