I don't deal so much with the tip toeing over eggshells around me as I do the second guessing my decisions. There are assumptions people close to me make with respect to the Bipolar. If I am having an extraordinarily bad day - which regular people have too - it must be the illness and I should see my psychiatrist. If I am showing happiness that can't be trusted either and I should see my psychiatrist. And then there are the decisions I make - they are all considered to be rash, especially if they involve money. Again, I should see my psychiatrist.

Namely, I can't be trusted.
