[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 670731, member: 11791"] Severity is one of the factors that determines whether there is any level of control when mental illness is involved. A person with rapid-cycling bi-polar might be able to hide those swings, but it takes a LOT of effort, and leaves less for ordinary living - which then brings other problems due to ordinary living not getting done. If swings are more intense and last longer, nobody has the strength to withstand those kinds of waves. The best hope for successful "control" is the willingness for medications and therapy that will reduce the impact of the illness and increase the tool-box so that they have more chance of being able to think things through and control their actions.
