Personally I think that the medical terms ‘bipolar’ and ADHD are phony in and of themselves. I do not claim to be an expert though, I am only stating the impression I get from the new outburst I have seen of people (and kids) claiming to have these conditions and being medicated.
That's a plus.
I wish that were true. I have a son who is bipolar, and when his medications are not right, life is he** around the house. He is going through puberty right now, and that throws everything off. I've had to have him locked up twice to get things straightened up. It's not safe for him or my family when he is in that state. He is totally irrational, and bounces from depression to violent to happy. He can go from an insane violence to being sound asleep in two minutes.
I would willingly give my left arm if it would make him better. When he is not cycling, he's the sweetest boy I know.
full bipolar disorder is a heartbreaking and life shattering illness, if uncontrolled.
