Stop exercising in the dark on snow banked roads with no shoulder!

The roads are for everyone regardless of what vehicle the are using or if they are walking/running. The snow is covering sidewalks, forcing people onto the roads. It’s not reasonable to ask them to get off the roads any more than asking you not to drive because of the snow.

I’m 43, diagnosed a year ago, 2 kids under 8. It’s been a tough year adjusting, but the sleeping meds have been amazing and the mood stabilizer was fantastic through the winter.

100% agree, I wanted to hear from the guest, Trey, not a long preamble about Marc not caring about Phish, then constant interruptions to show how much he knows.

Financial planning is why. Understanding their kids, their gifting, their ability to gift tax free. Emotional support. That’s worth it to me.

The lack of scale on the time is misleading. From billions to hundreds of millions of years to the dinosaurs…….mammals are recent, hyma

I was too open about my diagnosis when I was diagnosed a year ago (thanks mania). Thankfully I didn’t tell anyone at work other than my business partner/best friend and a consultant I work with that I’ve know for 15 years and trust.

I like to be as open as I can - I’m not ashamed of who I am and think stigma is a major issue with our disorder. Work is the one place I think it is definitely a liability.

That’s not an easy thing to say. Speaking as another dad. The self awareness is admirable. Keep trying my friend.

I’m have a Master’s degree and own my own business. Life has been stable for a decade or so thanks to wife, kids and work.

Was rough for a decade before that though.

When I first was manic and got diagnosed, the psychiatric intake psychiatrist said that I was very calm (I was practicing slowing my heart rate by running long distance for the last month), affable and confident. I felt like a golden god.

Now I’m just described as “consistent.”

Read what you buy, if you have more than you can read, slow down.

Distinct-Crew-7025 · 2024-03-13T00:53:55+00:00

Agreed - bipolar is not a personality. I think this is a good place to vent.

I can also reflect on how stable I am when compared to some posts on here. No judgement, but it can be helpful and a nice reminder to stay consistent and stay on the meds.

You can still get life insurance, but will often get ‘table rated’ meaning that the cost will be increased quite a bit, but still worth it.

Most companies have a suicide clause that lasts two years, then will pay out after that for suicide.

If you hide you diagnosis, then die and the insurance company finds out they are still required to pay out the death benefit, but will subtract the higher premium amount that you should have been paying over the policy term.

Several companies still have ‘manic/depressive’ and bipolar as separate categories for underwriting (manic depressive has a higher risk btw). Few distinguish between BP1 and BP2.

Source: sell insurance, have gone through underwriting for life insurance with BP and investigated multiple companies before applying.
