I don't know anyone with any form of bipolar (that I know of). I would love to meet someone (in person) who can relate to this aspect of my life, but how?? I've been to some groups/meet-ups but they are always held at hospitals and feel more like AA meetings...I don't mean this with any disrespect, but I want to meet others who are 'high-functioning' and have similar interests/lifestyle, etc. (otherwise it sort of defeats the purpose of the whole relating to each other bit). Am I searching for a "unicorn"?

(edit: by 'high-functioning' I don't mean people who aren't struggling or don't have periods of being 'non-functional,' but rather are generally able to get by)
