Telling Friends about My Bipolar Disorder I didn’t really tell my friends about my bipolar disorder because I was kind of suppressing it. I didn’t really talk about it with them. I didn’t talk about it really with anybody. Then I started talking about it with a therapist and that really helped me out a lot. She knew exactly what everything was, exactly what was happening, it was really cool. A friend came up to the ambulance right as I was leaving and he asked, “Where’s he going?” I told them about how I went to the hospital and then, it was nice for them to know what was going on with me.
