If it is bi-polar, there are some great medications out there now. I am married to a bi-polar woman, and we haven't had an episode in years because of the medication she takes. She said she felt knocked out at first, but once she had been taking them for a couple weeks that disappeared and there she was again.

I just hope the mods realize you were in a manic phase. I would hate to see you stay banned for that.

Hang in there. I know it doesn't help coming from a stranger, but you are not alone. It can get better. Try not to look at it like a prison if you can help it. They really are there to help. Your stay will be short, I assure you. Take advantage of it if you can. Learn all you can. It all helps.

Take it from someone who has deeply loved a bi-polar woman for over a third of my life, you are not worthless. She is one of the smartest, most interesting people, I have ever met. I am the one who is lucky.
