I personally would def choose to not have it, but as the years go by I am thinking it may be easier to just keep going with the life I have now, as opposed to try and get 'well' and fix things. I have been unmedicated for 4 years and it has been absolute hell. But at this point, I don't know how my life can go back to the way it was. Thoughts?
I have no success (though i'm in a depression now, and arguably i've had some successes), nor have i ever dated anyone (I'm 43) never mind married with kids.. However, my case is so bad (it's more than just bipolar) that i have no choice but to be on disability. For that reason, I'm glad i have it. For every other reason, no absolutely wish i never had it.
