[QUOTE="miles2go, post: 296913, member: 6374"] 1. Biologically-based -- what is the evidence? (I am not skeptical, I'd just like to know what it is.) I hear BiPolar (BP) has to do with dopamine imbalance (same neurotransmitter cocaine and methedrine increase during the "high") but presumably one can't check its level as easily as blood sugar? So what do we know? 2. Is describing BiPolar (BP) as "disorder" different than "illness"? Or is the difference between "disorder" and "disease" but "illness" includes both? It would be nice if this syndrom got respectfully popularized by hollywood like autism, MPD (others?) were made into movies. [/QUOTE]
