So I guess I need to just work out and read a lot and accept my retirement as it is. It’s very frustrating though.

Since your making $60,000 a year just to get out of bed anytime you want, go to bed anytime you want -- your way above the average income for someone in retirement. True, even with your income, your on a fixed income and anyone on a fixed income is more conservative by nature.
If you want to do something, and you do not want to place your income at risk. Volunteer with a social group. Since you were in the military, and you are bipolar, why not volunteer at your local VA hospital. With so many veterans coming back from combat duty, and so many at a high risk with suicide -- volunteering can save a life. Being a veteran and being bipolar, you can build better bridges with a veteran, than a out of the door undergrad without understanding what is, yes sir, no sir, sir I do not understand.
