[QUOTE="TerriH, post: 758962, member: 298"] My bipolar daughter lied constantly as a teen. Now that she is in her mid-20's the lies have become rare. She still has a quick temper but she only gets angry about nothing when she is cycling: it is as though she feels angry and assumes she is angry because of xyz, but in reality she is angry when she is manic. I know she is manic when her speech becomes rushed and then I take a step back until the mania has passed. She is now a housewife in another state. We do talk on the phone and we see her every few months. She and her husband are building a life for themselves, and I am proud of her. I do not know how old your daughter is, but with hard work and counseling even folks with bipolar can function most of the time. A person in a manic state can be exhausting but I am no longer her main support system, and so we talk on the phone when she needs to chatter and this is actually working [/QUOTE]
