“What differentiates those that have the same behavior as that called bipolar, with those that don’t have bipolar.
Is in the end, bipolar just a label? A label for free will actors who choose, or are rewarded and or conditioned to act in such a way? What’s the difference?”

Just because symptoms occur in others with different mental illness does not diminish the point that they do not occur in the healthy population. You say there is not physical/scientific proof that this is real, but when it is provided to you, you only criticize the source.

You don’t want to see mental illness as a real problem. Bottom line is that you act superior to those with mental illness, because you feel they choose bad behaviors, and you don’t. If that is what it takes for you, then fine. There are many of us here at FR that know this is a real problem, because we seen it. You didn’t answer my question on alzheimers. Are all those old people just pretending that they don’t remember anything, or is it enjoyable for them to need someone else to dress them, feed them, and take care of them all day?
