Just make it a sensible purchase. When I was manic I bought a way expensive car I couldnt afford. Thats buying out of mania.
If you have your support network helping in the decision making process thats called being sensible.

Looking for a car though is legitimate. I haven't had one at all for 2 years and for the piece of junk I had before that for another three. I have the opportunity now to regain the independence I lost. And I can do things now when I want or need to do them instead of depending on others for a ride. Most of all, I would be able to make some road trips to visit my children. Is this too much to ask? Especially now that I am in the position to do something about it?
