Those of us who are bipolar do not live in denial, as he claims. We feel guilt for the pain we cause our loved ones. We second-guess ourselves constantly, because we think we are not good enough. We don't even believe our own intuition, thinking that perhaps our gut feeling is just a mood swing...and that's how so many of us end up being victims of abusers. We keep giving people chance after chance that they don't deserve, because we doubt our own worth and intuition.
