I cannot find this video on YT now. It is a recent video with Kay Jamison in which she gives advice on dealing with the disorder. She mentions among other things that bipolar patients tend to surround themselves with malevolent people. This was so true of me, I cannot tell you.

I am consciously trying now to reverse the trend. I connect with benevolent people. Most of them know my diagnosis, but not all. I plan to stay close with positive people who wish me well.

If anyone knows what video I am talking about, please post the link.

Ok lol anytime. Im glad I could be of assistance. But she makes great points. Like taking medication, and definatly stay away from malevolent people, unfortunatly that would mean staying away from myself on some occasions. But luckily I have had a great support from my family and friends. i have been very open to people about my dx as i dont care about the stigma well thats kinda a lie I care but figure if people are going to judge me for it then I dont need them.
