Question by stantng: How do I tell my friend to see a Doctor to see if he may have Bi-Polar?
How do I tell my friend to see a Doctor to see if he may have Bi-Polar? I don’t want to hurt his feelings, but after many years I’ve noticed an up and down feature to his personality. I don’t know if it is Bi-Polar because I’m not a Doctor but I’m being treated for Bi-Polar and I know when it is trying to get the best of me. Be nice in your answers. No jokes.
