If someone is really bipolar, can he still choose

health advisory Hospital Mental Health 2007-11-15 19:01:22

If someone is actually bipolar (diagnosed), then they will need medical help in order to control the mood swings caused by the chemical imbalances in their brain. They can't choose their moods and often an untreated bipolar will attempt suicide at some time in their life.

If someone is only claiming to be bipolar, you could try challenging them on why they're pretending to have a serious, even fatal, mental disease without medical backup or treatment. If they're copping out by blaming their rages and sulky moods on a disorder then they ought to be willing to go to a doctor and get treatment. If they're not willing, then they are getting away with taking no responsibility for their actions which is not going to cut it with society.


If the person is really bi-polar & they are taking their medication, then they can choose to be rude or not.

It doesn't have to be a mental illness for someone to be rude to anyone or good to another!


The medication should help. There maybe episodes, but it shouldn't occur on a regular basis. For normmal people, it's not acceptable.
Being bipolar myself I can tell you that it doesn't sound like this person you describe is bipolar.

Sounds like a brat, who disrespects parents.


Maybe a problem dealing with authority?

If a guy doesn't respect his parents, he will not respect anyone. At first, he may seem respectful to you, because he wants something from you. Once he gets what he wants, he will start to treat you the same way he treats his parents.
