We have taken an unexpected turn.
Bipolar doesn’t worry me. That said, it’s caused me more than a few problems in the past. Now, alongside medical guidance and a support system, the main weapon in my armoury is humour. I find that if I laugh at something which threatens me then the potency of that threat diminishes accordingly.
I had not anticipated a response of the kind AskNott contributed a couple of posts above. He/she expresses a sincere solution to a posting problem which doesn’t exist, and gives encouragement where none was really sought. The post does deny sarcasm.
Since it has never been my intention to piss off anybody on this message board (most of the time anyway) I offer my apologies to AskNott and thank him/her for their concern. Life is very, very cool for me right now and there is simply nothing to worry about.
Similarly, I regret any offence caused to other readers who may have been offended by the two previous posts I have made in this thread. I’ll certainly continue to deal with the condition in my own way, albeit with a more considered approach and a better choice of location.
Thanks to Dex and others who got the joke. It might be best to close this thread now.
(Best joke on the Board for a long time!)
