My point is that while I fit many of the diagnostic criteria for
Bipolar Disorder, one I do NOT fit is doing poorly in school or
failing to achieve any noteworthy educational landmarks, like good
grades AND official degrees, of which I have 3 and YOU have none!

Have you gotten therapy fior your mental disorder? Because you need
it, and it seems to me that you may have.

My $1000 two day nursing job got postponed. What do YOU have that can
earn you $1000 in two days? Nothing, right? That's because you're
still going the same thing you were when we were teenagers, you're a
janitor with NO college degrees.
