The short answer is no. I see a troubled young man.

This doesn’t mean you aren’t. And if you are, then so what? It makes no odds to me.

However, if you are or think you are then for goodness sake get the professional help you need. There’s no shame in it.
The counselor I talked to David she thought I had have a touch of bipolar disorder but I just don't see it. That's why I ask. I have depression. I know that. I have issues u need to work and social anxiety. But I don't think I'm bipolar.

Scary.
It's like the idiots at airports when asked if they have anything to declare and say "Only a bomb, ha de ha".
They are then taken away by police, interrogated, searched by rubber gloved officers with big hands and sometimes fined, imprisoned or beaten up.
Quite right too.
People just don't think about what they say before they say it. In this day and age you cannot afford not to think before talking.

She may be correct. She’s certainly better qualified than me to say. It’s important that she’s alerted you though because it does mean that you might need different meds.

From the little I do know, all these things are linked depression can be an illness in itself but it is not uncommon for it to be linked to other things.

What matters is getting the right help. Bipolar is a label for one type of mental illness. It’s not anything to be ashamed of or to be defensive about. We know and like you as Dan not as “the one who’s mentally ill”.

Try to be open minded about it. We are :)

I think I could try them cooked. I have eat live millworms before (on a bet) and the wiggling is what gets you.
Shudder. That is one of the reasons why I could never take part in "Fear Factor" as they would make me eat something like that and I just could not do it.

I hope they get along well together. I think, in my opinion, that's dogs always do better in a 'pack' environment.
Yes. I think that you are right. Milley definitly seems to indicate now that she is not happy being on her own. If I was retired and or at home all day every day, I think it would be okay. I really hope that she does get on with the dog we saw as well.
