You bring up a interesting point .... most of my friends couldn’t understand my working more than one job. I could easily pay my bills with my main job, but my mom opened her own salon and I thought ... hey cool ! I’ll get my license to do nails. I’ll do Saturday and Wednesday’s. I already worked every other weekend waitressing while my daughter was with her father. Looking back I can see Bipolar was certainly present from about age 6.
I do think there is a connection for me at least.
Thank you for the observation
