Is it normal for a manic depressive to lose touch with reality or could something else be going on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Complicated question: Now this is a complicated question. When a bipolar person is untreated the judgement can be impaired. There could be poor decisions made. So the sense of stability and reality could be off. However there are other medical concerns that could cause same issues. You are best to see your doctor and have a doctor who knows you very Welk this way you are comfortable and can discuss exactly how you feel
