I honestly think this illustrates a big part of your problem:

You say that you're bipolar. My guess is that you're probably correct about that. Your doctor has not made that diagnosis, as far as I know -- you didn't answer my question about that, by the way. So right now you're not receiving treatment for bipolar.

You say that your bipolar is not to the point it requires treatment. You attribute a lot of your current problems functioning to ADHD. From reading your posts, though, I wonder if perhaps your functioning is suffering due to mania? What you've been describing in your posts sounds remarkably like mania -- either hypo- or full blown.

I'm not a doctor. You're not a doctor. We can't make an official diagnosis, and we certainly can't prescribe medications. I wonder, though, whether treating you for mania might not be a solution to a lot of the functional deficits you've described here in your posts?

I've got a few more things to say, in response to your other posts on this topic, but I'm not sure I have time right now. It may be later tonight.

Good luck. I do care about you, and I hate to see you in so much distress.
