OMG, MuddyBoots! Me too! Why haven't I said this already?! In fact, you must be a brilliant, genius too!

We all are brilliant genuises!

Well, I DO feel that way actually even depressed or stable, not just when I'm manic. Even if I don't answer every post or leave some people out, sometimes I just can't find the right words, KWIM?

We all unfortunately KNOW firsthand what bipolar is like, the good and the bad. As they say: You have to walk in someone else's shoes to really understand wha they mean or do or feel. We have all been there, done that and even stupider, more embarrassing stuff than we post here that we should or don't have the courage to say to ANYONE else but those of us on bipolar and other MSFs: not T's, not friends, not even spouse's or SO's.

I LOVE that MSF exists! Heck, whoever created MSF is AWESOME and even more genuis than those of us here!
