I only mentioned it twice, in passing. Can't really blame anyone if they did not know.
According to the DSM-IV-TR, I classify as Bipolar-I. Which makes it a lot easier, even moreso as I am on medication. Without the medication I would indeed run the risk of developing it substantially further.
Still, I am prone to some serious mood swings; most common in settings where I expect competence or clarity, and none is given. Bureaucratic institutions are always a good place for me ...
But at least it is manageable.
