Not to say there isn't somehing to fix, but backed my very large profits, uneducated doctors, and people desperate for help will lead to this. The problem I find is that when someone goes to the doctor and learns the are "bipolar", they have a label now. Now psychologically they think they something wrong with them, and if you went a MD then you now have to take a script for the rest of your life.

Yes, this is exactly my same opinion.

If you can't beat em, join em!
We will invent a new mental disorder and sell the remedy (a placebo). We can even run the help forum for this new disorder. Hahaha (evil laugh).
How about chronic unforfillment? Everyone get that 
Do you ever feel unforfilled? Is there a lacking in your life? Well you have a disorder that normal people don't. Taking my $99 herbal pills will restore the imbalance in your mind.
I bet I could sell tons of those, I mean people are lapping up scientology and that hits the same buttons.

If it were that simple we wouldn't be having this argument.

I'm bipolar too - because I live in a bipolar society. Many doctors and shrinks have given me this label. And others, as well.
But I rebuke it. I found out that I am only me, and that it is up to make to create my own reality, no matter what's going on in here.
Eating pure, organic and raw fruits and veggies has pretty much put the breaks of my erratic swings of manic slobbering ecstasy and grim suicidal depression.
I simply feel peaceful most of the time, ever since I changed my diet.
I even TRIED to become depressed the other day, could feel it lapping at the edge of my consciousness, but I just COULDN'T. I felt too at ease, like depression seemed like a bore. Sometimes I get insane SURGES of energy, but it's clean and steady, not abrasive and overwhelming like it used to be.
Focusing on the present moment, the Power of Now, has really helped.
It's a process, but you CAN heal yourself. I was told numerous times by different docs I would be on meds for the rest of my life and spent years cutting myself all over my body, alcoholism, and toying with suicide, and raking up the hospital bills, because I believed what they had told me, that I had no control over what was happening in my brain.
I personally learned this to be false. I AM MY OWN DOCTOR. It is up to me to help myself.
I am present in Here and Now so much more these days. I don't even know what happened, but ever since I changed my intake (what I put into my body, spiritually, emotionally, physically), it helped to heal me.
