Devise argument, ask for proof of bi polar and what they are basing it on, attribute to thyroid ec and ask for it to be removed from your medical records. If this fails, you may have to make a complaint, thus drawing more attention to yourself. Been having the same cuffuffal with the bulmia/anorexic no, celiac yes issue, oh the NHS.

If you have Bipolar Disorder, why not simply accept it and learn to manage your difficulties so that you do not have any run-ins
with the police and hospitals?

There are many, many people who live with Bipolar Disorder...and who are living healthy lives. Three prominant film/television actors who have Bipolar Disorder are Patty Duke...who starred in the Broadway and Film production of "The Miracle Worker" based on the life of Helen Keller (as well as other things), she is married to the actor who played Gomez Adams of "The Addams Family"..Kristy McNichol who starred in the 1980s sitcom, "Family" among other television productions and the
woman (I cannot remember her name) who played Superman's girlfriend, Lois Lane in the 1980s film, "Superman" played by Christopher Reeves before his. accident that left him paralyzed.

except i dont. I was welll aware of what was going on in my head and bipolar was not there. as it stands its nothing more than a excuse to violate my rights and my health again. The fact is i can controll my behavior i cant controll others, so if someone has a confronttation with me other something a i cant controll them creating a problem for me. What i f i have a meltdown and someone sees it they are gonna call 911 and the cops are gonna see it and have me evaluated. or if i walk into a hospital er for a medical problem they might put me in the psych unit(this stuff happens on a daily basis). You about bipolar like its something youd want to have. I really dont believe in the concept of mental illness. The label is just nothing more than a legal and social hazard, i can be subject to discrimination in jobs, housing, services, legal proceedings, people can make complaints about me and i would have no recourse to defend my self. Whatever my problems are, noone else has the right to know.

all my problems arouse because people went out of their way to have a confrontation with me
