As with anyone with a mental condition a BD person can be very astute and cunning when it comes to firstly disguising and covering up their mental condition and being extra or even extra extra horrible. In the case of a BD person this is most likely the complete isolation of a parent or parents and total decimation of a parent or parent’s relationships with those around them. If you know anyone showing signs of in particular all of the above that is a clear warning sign of Bipolar Disorder. If you know anyone like that get them to get the help they may need the sooner the better. If left untreated BD can develop into a ‘Psychosis’ phase and the person concerned can become a risk to not only themselves but also those around them. Most of the time a BD person will seem generally fine however just below the surface things are clearly just not quite right. Apart from turning totally against a parent or parents in the first place the next most significant sign of BD is using any bit of controversy and/or negative information they can on someone they have it in for, usually their own parent or parent/s against them. Not only that they can intensify that controversy and/or negative information to maximum affect to achieve their goal of turning whoever they can against in particular a parent or parents. Of course this can be absolutely devastating for that parent or parents and all those around them. Another major red flag is unnecessarily overspend on things, losing significant amounts of money with that, getting loans from people, credit cards and banks and not pay that back and of course extreme gambling. They can hold down jobs and careers and be very successful in business however beneath something is most definitely wrong. It is excessive tendencies that are major red flags. Normally people operate within a range of the generally reasonable with sometimes some increased mistakes but overall more or less extra more or less ok variations from time to time. However a BD person can really take things in general to seriously increased levels be that anger, distress or whatever. For example we can all get upset about things and with people however a BD person will take things like this to whole new levels. They can be very abusive to people close to them and in particular a parent or parents. Of course in the worst case scenario that can become physical but still very disturbing and horrifying is the psychological abuse. The absolute pain a BD person can inflict on in particular a parent or parents by firstly turning totally against them then setting about turning everyone else they can against them is very disturbing and horrifying. Even so always remember no matter what a BD person does in particular while undiagnosed and non medication they are simply not well and are basically not in a right state of mind.
