Yes I have quit Several jobs because of my Bipolar!!! If I felt it was just Too Stressful I would make sure I was getting enough sleep and talk it over with My now ex husband. 1 time I didn't talk to him and I just took my framed Diplomas off my boss wall and walked out!! I was pissed. My ex just said you must have been thinking about this for a long time!! My boss forgave me and He later owned a successful CPA firm!! He was Deaf and I was his Secretary and ASL interpreter. Never regret your occupation choices. Bipolar persons are Very Intelligent!!

Have you ever quit your job because of bipolar disorder? I feel like one day I want it and I am so excited and then later I hate the idea of doing it so much. How do you deal with not wanting to do what you wanted at first? How do you work?
