i mean, not in a hospital or support group..... but you're doing a hobby or something and some really hyper guy comes along... and you think to yourself "#@$ this guy has got to be bipolar..." then as you get to know them better they talk about seeing doctors....... but so many (successful) people i have met have this attitude "mental illness does not exist... they are just labels... " which is one perspective, which i imagine changes when one's mania ends..... man i am jealous of all these successful manic people i meet (i havn't been euphoric for about a year :( ) .......... now that i am finally stable i am starting to meet *cool* bipolars, those who are dealing well with their illness and are superstars socially, and i really wish i could have met them when i was h-manic as we would have had such a blast
ever meet bipolars in real life?
