My bipolar is getting worse as i age. I remember an older friend in my IRL support group telling a younger me it did. I did not believe her. Now, at 58, coming down from the highest episode i've ever had with the worst insomnia and the biggest total cost by far and the longest running time (five months), i finally believe her.

I had thought that surely i'll get better at handling bipolar, with experience. Na ga da.
