Very true about standing for something...taking a stand can mean meaning things to each of us...

Maybe taking a stand will be clearing up any deficiencies real or otherwise demonstrating to all that because someone has bipolar they are still very worthy to do whatever it is they want...

I mention this as I just watched the Hallmark Hall of Fame Movie "Front of the Class"...it is based on a true story about a real life person with tourettes syndrome who wanted to teach. He was turned down 24 times before attaining a teacher position...this is still very fresh in my mind...the discrimination he went through was horrible...he took a particular stand...

goodguy...I don't know where this will go for you? It will be a highly personal choice you will make. I hope that the many prespectives here can show you some choices you can make. As we know there are many solutions.
