[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 690927, member: 1963"] SWOT, what's scary for me is that they've evidence of increasing organic brain disease in bipolar folks as well. The do not know yet if its due to the disorder itself, self-medicating, or the sorts of medication chronically use to tx bipolar. There's also a risk of early Alzheimers in sx and BiPolar (BP) folks, though again, that may be the medications, some of which are prone to srew up brain receptors of neurotransmitters permanently., But, I'm taking the chance on being forgetful and spacey, as opposed to having normal cognition and being impossible to function in socicety. I think I'm OK on the Alheizmer's issuel. With my family, we either die between50 and 60, or we live to over 95, with few making it into their 100s. Some degree of senility seems to kick in around 5-6 years before death and worsens rapidly. The younger folks who die usually die of colorectal or ovarian cancer. Symtptons are so minor, more like IBS, which most of us have. It's hard to recognize a change in bowl habits that last more than 2 weeks, when you're colon has NEVER behaved the same for 2 weeks.
