I'll admit my personality has been affected by BP. I've had this disease for over 35 years.
So when I look at my faults, I see them thru the lens of BP.
If I have a temper tantrum, or I want to isolate. Or I'm afraid to leave the house. Even if I can't force myself to shower everyday.
Also. When I'm on a roll. Designing new buildings and I just can't shut it off. Stay up all night working. Filling volumes with plans ideas material lists budgets.
The people I know don't work like that. They plod along.
It's hard to explain.
