I'm sorry, am i misunderstanding?
While I understand this comparison on some level, a diabetic does not have some of the horrible episodes many people living wirh BP report experiencing. Such an episode(s) does make BP so very different from diabetes..
Diabetes does not cause impaired judgement and/or psychosis.,which is frequently present in BP "episodes." Hopefully the professional would be very stable. Yet, people living with BP report episodes occuring repeatedly.and, often, unexpectedly.
How is diabetes similar to BP illness?
