Sorry I don't see bipolar as a "disability" so I wouldn't have put anything down. I'm not crazy. Which by the way was confirmed by my pdoc! lol. I think of it like I have any other life long condition like diabetes.

Anyway if I had been confronted with the attitude you got from that dmv employee I would have said something along he line of "don't worry I don't bite" or "I would appreciate it if you treated me with a little more respect. I don't bite, it isn't catchy and in reality I'm just like you only I feel the extremes of emotions." If she didn't desist I would have requested to speak with the manager or a superior of some sort. Oh and using large words and taking a confident and powerful stance helps. I have made many a grown man, woman, doctor, and attorney quake in their boots because I'm intimidating. Not because they think I will hurt them physically or go crazy, but because I can be mentally intimidating. I don't get it, but I do enjoy it.
