| BPII and AA
I posted about this in the Alcoholism 12 step thread - didn't realise there was a mental health section.
I most likely have BP II and will be going for an assessment. I had to complete a form and some of the questions made me feel that believing in a higher power might be a symptom of bi-polar. I'm not really sure how to understand it.
A belief in a higher power seems to be pretty much a part of the human condition. It's found in all cultures and historic periods.
What would indicate that a belief in the supernatural/mystical crosses the line from being relatively normal and healthy and being a manifestation of a mental illness?
