What, exactly, do you mean by self-involved?

I think since having it for 40+ years you have to constantly think if what you are thinking or feeling is due to bipolar. I had early on bipolar rapid cycling and my whole life was upside down and sideways. Every move or thought was due to bipolar. Self-absorbed most of the time. But once you get on meds that keep you balanced and your bipolar is in check you can then feel fairly safe. I was mostly free for 15 years but lately my depression and manic episodes are comung back. I've come to the point to recognize it before it gets too bad. See psych dr this coming week and I'm sure my meds will be tweaked. We'll see. Good luck..be well...be safe
