My theory

Bipolar IS NOT biological?

What do I mean by this? I was thinking about it, is it the chicken or the egg? Does the stress, life situation, a person's beliefs and thoughts cause 'chemical imbalance' or does the 'chemical imbalance' cause the episodes (depression and mania)?

I have always been reluctant to believe that mania and depression are CAUSED by chemical imbalances (there are many reasons why I didn't believe this but I will go into that later).

My life has done a 180 turn and I am completely in awe of this so everything is taking me a while to synthesise. The feeling is indescribable, it's so overwhleming and beautiful that I constantly am in disbelief and I have to check to see if I'm thinking straight. It's crazy but I've realised my sanity.
