I'm sorry you're angry about this. People do the best they can to understand bipolar, and sometimes it just doesn't cut it.

Is it possible that explosive anger is partly due to anger about having bipolar? I used to feel the same way you do and once I accepted my diagnosis, I was better able to hear people's words about identifying with me.
Thanks for this!
