tkofsa, it did exist, it was called Manic depression, and it is not a joke, or something to mock. It is very real. I suggest for anyone who has questions that you get educated on this condition. It is too often that lack of education caused unecessary problems. Educate yourself, and you will see. Also, if you haven't met or know someone with this terrible disease I suggest you not comment, because you have no clue what it's like.

Bipolar Disorder is very real, to those who comment with snide nasty remarks I hope that none of your loved ones, be it a parent,sibling,spouse or child never have to suffer with the disorder.

I'm sorry, but going from extremely happy one minute to a cursing holy terror the next doesn't make you bi-polar. It makes you a complete arseholio.
