If you had a family member or friend who is bi-polar you wouldn't hold this chilling attitude.
Don't judge all these unfortunate souls and their equally unfortunate families by this one person.
If you had to live with or care for a bi-polar sufferer for one year, you would have your eyes opened wider than a Hillary stare.

Agree. It may not show up on a CAT scan but it is real and it can be devastating.
A trillion now dead primitive people believed in all sorts of powerful forces. People still believe in the talking cures of Freud. Few people belove in aura therapy.
People believe all sorts of things. Parents believe their dolt kid is a genius. Others that their smart kid is a dolt.
I don’t.
My wife's sister is. And I/we do feel very sorry. What we have run up against for 30 years is that she not only refuses to deal with it in *any* sort of constructive manner; worse, she uses it as an excuse for everything. Nothing is ever her responsibility, everyone in the family is here for her benefit.
It is very frustrating when, on one hand, she admits she has problems (but refuses to call it bi-polar) and then will list all of the reasons she can't do anything about it. No matter what any of us suggest, she always tells us she can't do it.
I think her mental problems are much broader than the bi-polar thing. Of course, no emotional or mental problem exists in a vacuum.
