Maybe I don't have the vision to see that I'm sick or maybe I just don't want to believe that I'm having an episode. What do you think? Do you do this too?

Well, if I'm depressed I definitely want to get better. If I'm manic...initially, I believe my own manic mind. I don't think there's anything to "get better" from. It seems to me that there's something wrong with others, not me. I feel like I have special powers and abilities - and the world is brighter and more beautiful! When things start going out of control (especially if I'm angry and fighting everybody, or I'm delusional), then I want to get better.
