I think one personality is plenty...

So, my twin Wildflower is back in the dating hunt. And it's rough out there!! She had some guy contact her yesterday that was bi-polar and ADHD...

Not a good combo. At. All.

I'm a bit familiar with ADD/ADHD now. RR has it. It proves to be difficult sometimes (remember the time blog?) but for the most part he has coping mechanisms that allow him to get through the day in a semi-reasonable fashion and run a business. His ADHD mostly manifests in the form of hoarding multiples of the same thing and then throwing them in his already-crowded storage unit. But, that's his problem, not mine. Yet...

But that's another blog.

Bi-polar is also something I'm familiar with. I know people who have it and it's a tough one. You never know which personality is going to walk through the door. I've worked for 2 people who had it and it was a no-win situation. I can't even imagine trying to create a relationship around such a thing. They are hard enough as it is.

I think my limit is one mental disorder per relationship.

Wildflower pretty much feels the same...

  1. Yeah, my last roommate was bi-polar, ADHD, and clinically depressed. It was a terrifying experience.

    My abuse ex-bf was also bi-polar.
