Hi,

Now I have two first cousins who are dx'd bipolar -- at least one from my father's side and one from my mother's. This recent one dropped out of college to come home to his parents. (There are more than two of course, but the families keep secrets from other members.)

I'm glad he can get the help he needs. Previously his parents had been hoping he only had depression.

I have hope for him.
I wonder if sometimes bipolar might be more successfully treated than some types of depression.
