Being right is still whatever it is whether I am manic, depressed or whatever, and people ultimately "listen" or not in proportion to their personal perceptions that "the risks might be too high and the personal sacrifices too many and too great". Being manic has variously helped as well as hindered at times, but its symptoms certainly do seem to hinder more than to help.
