[QUOTE="totoro, post: 166737, member: 3155"] I was talking to a guy my age who has worked in the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) and long term placement facilities up here in the great north west. He was looking to get his degree in child psychiatric and was asking about working for a guy here in town in the interim. Well we were gabbing and I was dishing on the town and I gave him my honest opinion! LOL But I told him I have Bipolar Disorder. He told me that his Mom was diagnosis'd as having BiPolar (BP) as well, but he went on and told me that she received the diagnosis in her late 40's and has been suffering a lot of trauma. Divorce and many other things. I found this interesting and thought of this thread. I do think for a lot, the Bipolar gene may be present, some trauma or event is just "needed" to trigger the Mental Illness to rise to the surface, so to speak. Or even a medication as we have obviously seen. Even though there are still doctor's that do not believe this is possible. One of ours, "Stims can NOT trigger mania!!!" WHAT!!! That was the one who did not believe BiPolar (BP) existed in young kids. [/QUOTE]
