I have this question; I dont know if other people feel this way too. One of my friends, a really good friend, always seems to... blame every little thing that I do on my illness. Yes I'm Bipolar and I do funny things every once n' awhile, and in the past(before med.) I would make up things in my head and I thought they were real. I mean, people who are bipolar do that. So with the past I'm not really sure what really happened and what didnt, and he (my friend) know this. So every now and then when I say something about what I'm feeling, and he doesn’t agree with it, he tells me that I need to take more drugs and that I'm not seeing things clearly again and that I'm making things up. I've only known I'm bipolar since January and I have been friends with him for 5-6 years so he's uses to me acting this way, but I dont think I'm making things up, and maybe I am and I need to up my med’s, but does anyone else understand what I'm feeling? Does anyone else have a friend who would do this to them? How do I make him understand, that that was before and that I'm better now?
