Dual Diagnosed Bipolar - Truth or Tarnish!?

Sometimes I wish I had never been born with ego and pride. Those two things have caused me a lot of pain.
We bipolar folk are often volatile and sensitive toward what others think and say about us. I have found for myself that the "volatile and sensitive" aspect of my nature may work against me.
At least twenty times in my life, people had suggested that I am an
alcoholic. At least a hundred times in my life, people had suggested
that I am a jerk. I don't know HOW many doctors suggested that I am
manic depressive (bipolar)..... Of course, I told all of them to go to
hell. After all, what do THEY, these strangers, know about ME!? How
DARE they besmirch me with their lies and accusations!
