don't want to go into details but i basically went insane. completely manic, delusional, sleeping 2-3 hours a night. neighbors called the cops eventually. cops took me to a hospital where i was forced to do a "voluntary" admit. stayed there over two weeks. came out and crashed into a severely depressed episode. lost my job.

this was many years ago

no manic episodes for several years now. taking a tiny dose of anti-manic medication. and a huge dose of benzos.

34, last manic episode was at 28.

career-wise i'm ahead of most of my peers since i made it to the management level. most of friends have been trapped at the senior engineer level. i think i could handle a kid if my job weren't so stressful.

“Mental illness” seems to be a catch-all term for people who are bold/foolish enough to not hide away every last trace of the despondency that everyone else is prone to afaik.

this is true for low-key stuff like mild depression and anxiety. but bipolar disorder? we're talking about a whole new level of mental illness that people don't talk about. intense stigma around it. lost a lot of "friends" after my most intense manic episode.

My mother had bipolar, I’m well familiar with it. Shit, I probably have it too. But my point is that this is just inherent to the human brain/consciousness and something that naturally occurs - it’s only an “illness” in the sense that we vainly attempt to declare it so in an attempt to divert attention from this reality.

Well genetics are naturally occurring too, so where is the credibility? You basically just have a popular opinion that these genetics are better than those genetics for whatever reason, but none of it is really an illness in the medical sense that we are familiar with.

I have though. Who’s to say those with severe schizophrenia aren’t “right” or at least as “right” as anyone else is? It’s literally just one guy’s brain vs another’s.

this is meaningless meandering on the level of a high school kid learning about philosophy for the first time. it's like trying to define life.

scientists don't even know how tylenol works. do you think deep questions of the mind will ever be answered? probably not. despite this, there's been enough progress since the discovery of MAOIs and antipsychotics to make psychiatry as scientific as is humanly possible at the present moment. we're at the point where psychiatric medications literally save lives.
