I answered below at the same time as the above poster, so I'll answer both.

I wish I had accepted treatment for my bipolar disorder when first diagnosed, which was about one year before I was hospitalized the first time. It would have also been good if I had emphasized my alcohol abuse more at that time. It's hard to know, but if I did the above I might still be working and things could be significantly better.

I value my husband the most.

Is there something (or someone) that entered your life because of bipolar disorder that is very positive?
