Thank you for the replies. I suppose the main point I was making is that the things that irritate the hell out of me are so mundane it's ridiculous. No one could possibly predict what is going to make me go off. And, although I am literally to the point that I am almost 100% against the bipolar meds, I realize that my own opinion means very little when compared to what my family has to endure.

As far as the suggestion to see a therapist, I am unaware of one that will take someone without insurance-or the money to pay. I was seeing one before my insurance ran out months ago, and now I owe that clinic money I don't have as well due to a mix-up on their end. So, I doubt a therapist is in my near future. Honestly, I'm not very sold on therapists, either. I've had bad ones and good ones but I've never found them to be any more effective than just opening up to anyone.

Regardless, I appreciate everyone taking the time.
