I'm with Crissco, I've been diagnosed as bi-polar as well, and I also suffer from social anxiety. I definitely see a difference in my highs and lows compared to other people. When I'm depressed, I'm incredibly depressed to the point where i want to kill everyone. It can be because of the littlest thing that just frustrates the hell out of me. But then when I'm happy, I'm happy about everything and treat everyone like they are kings and queens. I can understand why it's off-putting to some people lol.
