I tend to excel in the realm of academics, but I don't think that makes me any more or less intelligent than someone who excels in sports, art, music, etc..
My IQ is "very superior", but that just means I'm good at taking a professional IQ test. If I were to play basketball, my "basketball IQ" would probably be below 90!
And to answer the other part of your question: no, I don't think BP has affected or "determined" my overall intelligence

And what about the other way round?

Mania kills cells. Brain cells die. Memories become more reduced conceptually, making more efficient use of limited means. Memories shape our reality. Our memories are more or less split in two by abstractions, conceptual reductions. Mood states with memories, concepts, attached. Memories of pain and those of joy. It causes instability, changeability. Fearing that will leave an emptiness between pain and joy and a greater divide.
