Bipolar is a mental disorder. The issue under the ADA is that one be accommodated within reason; reason is if properly medicated and under control.
IMO, if they are not under control such that their bad days are “dangerous” or unable to work, they are too disabled to work.

bipolar disorder has a set of symptoms that are profound in their disabling impact. Not just a bad mood.

Judgement is profoundlyimpaired with many bipolars and tragic outcomes sometime occur.
