Bi-Polar is a severe condition, so they were able to see the extreme tendencies, they wouldn't diagnose you otherwise. And yes, part of Bi-Polar is not being in touch with reality to the extent perceived.
You aren't in control, you just "think" you are.
I had to live in a mental hospital for two weeks with all kinds of people. The Bi-Polar ones acted fairly normal until they spoke, and then they become obvious. The doctors see more than you think, it's their job to do so.
Is it normal that I hide my tendencies from therapists?
