Bi-polar

A woman I know recently expressed to me that she was upset with her brother, who is trying to get disability because he is bi-polar. She knows him, so she knows that his "disorder" is probably not bad enough to get paid by tax payors not to work. I understand her distress. It is laughable to me how a person who has never had a period whines and doesn't want to work because he's moody.

This crazy book called "Scattershot" follows the family of this guy who's bipolar, so are his parents. He related that 20% of people diagnosed Bi-polar choose suicide, and at least a third of them attempt it. The guy might just be cyclothymic,in which case it would/should be manageable.
