    Elliot growing up with a bi-polar mother and a stricted father must have been tough on him and his siblings. When Kathleen was diagnosed with bi-polar disorder, it caused the childhood memories with his mother to flood back.

      this. I suffer from bipolar myself. everyone always thinks the depresive episodes are the worst part, you feel shitty for a while but then you get all happy. and don't get me wrong, its rough, but the mania is truly the worst of it. i could laugh off death during a manic episode. but you dont wanna even take the meds cuz that makes the happiness go away.
      I didnt really learn how to deal with it until i got happy foreal, outside of the mania. lots of therapy and dozens of meds over the years (tho i found my right balance now).
      someone who worked on this episode or the show in general definitely knows psych disorders or has experience with them

      ​@@snakebitepellehue It is also hard to treat them because you need to treat two opposite symptoms - when treating mania, you are increasing feelings of sadness; when treating depression, you are provoking a new rush of mania. Finding tiny line in medication doses and punctual regimes can take years to achieve. Additionally, patients don't like the feeling of sadness and depression so they tend to skip those medications and use only ones which make them "feel good" - eventually becoming resistant to doses and requiring stronger meds.... Or drugs. And finally, usually people with BiPD can go under the radar just as reckless and are diagnosed too late in life, when they are already resistant to the majority of meds or developed some addictions, etc.

      As a fellow psych major, I agree. Aside from personality disorders, bipolar is one of the hardest. The mania/hypomania tends to contribute to medication non-compliance because who wants to feel like a zombie or be deprived of the high times? Mania is like cocaine, I’d love to be high on cocaine for days to weeks at a time, even if it was detrimental to my life.

      I have complex PTSD and I’m a Psych major. Borderline seems like the most challenging disorder imo. I unfortunately have not had good experiences with borderline individuals, but I sympathize because it appears their behavior was part of how the disorder warps the mind. The individuals I knew were highly manipulative. From the start you’re their best friend, even though you just met them. Then the moment you demonstrate boundaries (i.e first time you say no), they see you as their enemy. I have watched that switch happen in an instant. It was honestly really scary. Going from “you’re the best, we’re literally family” to “f*ck you I hope you die in a car accident!!” In less than 10 minutes. It’s like this “get them before they get me” attitude, as well as an extreme “everyone loves me or everyone hates me” swinging pendulum. Think Trisha Paytas on Frenemies if you’ve seen those clips. That just has to be exhausting. Like being stuck on a miserable ride. I’m sure I’ve met more individuals who I didn’t know were bpd. These are just the ones who were open about their diagnosis.
      I would love to know from the perspective of individuals with bpd, how could I be a better friend / colleague to these individuals on the more severe side? Is there any way to prevent these escalations or show that I’m genuinely trying to be kind? It feels like no matter what I do, it’s seen as an attack. I’m neurodivergent as well, and I’ve tried to open with that as kind of a disclaimer but it’s not always received well either.

    My only quip about this is that the defense lawyer for Kathleen said BPD when referring to Bipolar. Borderline Personality Disorder and Bipolar Disorder are two completely different disorders. The biggest difference being that BPD is a personality disorder (hence the name), and Bipolar is a mood disorder. One often gets misdiagnosed as the other due to overlapping symptoms, but it's so important to distinguish between the two.

So it came as a shock to me when he disclosed he was bipolar. He was far removed from the usual manic, hyperactive and violent depictions I saw on screen. I asked him how he managed to remain himself and he said constantly taking medication and a great support system. So yeah, I do believe that it doesn't stop you from being a great person nor an excuse for deviancy. Unfortunately, not everyone is lucky to even get a doctor to diagnose them.

A medication regimen will consists of very loosely, a med to get them come down and another to keep them from falling into a deep depression.This is a very generalized plan. Each individual has their own personalized care. Those with bipolar disorder have a very complex struggle marred by cycling for years and also getting on and off medication bc of the real life side effects but also how it makes them feel. Some not all unfortunately turn to using illicit drugs to "feel alive" again. It's so hard. Its also hard to watch a loved one or anyone you care about struggle as well.

    This hits so close to home. The hardest part of having a loved one go through mental illness is that, by definition, they aren't thinking clearly or making good decisions about their care. Hopefully they can lean on and trust the people around them who love them to help them make good choices. 😪💔❤

    A lot of mental disorders are hereditary. We don't have bipolar in our family but Depression, Anxiety, and likely ADHD and ADD. My dad has depression and PTSD, my mom hasn't been diagnosed but we suspect ADHD and anxiety, my older brother likely has ADD, and I've been diagnosed with Depression and an Anxiety disorder. I know my parents were hoping for it to be different for us, but when I started showing symptoms it's like all their worst fears are realized. Ill never forget how destroyed and guilty my dad looked when he thought he'd given me depression

Wouldn’t you try to save them from themselves and the mistakes they made when they were out of their mind? I think any good parent would at least consider intervening. He’s hypocritical when it comes to his family, but I think that adds to the complexity of his character.

    VERY good representation of bipolar disorder! I grew up with a mother who had a very severe case of it. Then my son was born with it and his was so bad, he was hospitalized at age 4 at UCLA's pediatric neuropsychiatric inpatient ward for a month- the first time a child that young was ever admitted (they usually didn't accept until age 7). There's nothing worse than seeing your loved ones suffer, knowing nothing can be done, and not be able to help, *especially* when it's your child.

    This hits so close to home for me. My oldest son is a teenager and his bipolar started showing and it hasn’t been real bad yet but he refuses to take the medication to prevent any serious situations from happening. My ex husbands brother has bipolar disorder and I remember us all going to a club called “Reggae on the Roof” like in the name it’s roof top club with fire 🔥 pits amazing music and lounge couches, well this particular night my BIL gets up is looking kind of crazy in the face like out of it. He is staring out not in the sky but over the rooftop ledge and starts trying to catch things in the air, I told my husband to look at him and asked what’s going on? Within a few seconds after that he starts running and tried to jump off the ledge of the club and my husband had grabbed him just in time or it would have ended in tragedy for him.
    My sister and her ex boyfriend also have bipolar disorder my sisters is more low mania and severe depression but her ex boyfriend had manic episodes where he jumped out her bedroom window on the 2nd story of our house broke his arm. Another time he had gotten so out of his mind he In front of my then 16 yr old sister cut his thumb off with a machete. My Aunt has it and her hyper sexuality, severe drug addictions and doing a lot of other illegal activities getting herself into major trouble and put in prison many time. My Grandma has it and I remember when my grandpa told her if she ever got off her meds again he is divorcing her, when I asked why he said one morning after she went 2 months refusing to take the medication, she woke up told him she had a dream where she went grabbed an axe 🪓 and murmured him with it and chopped up his body with it.
    Bipolar disorder is so serious when my teen son was diagnosed I thought I was going to have a panic attack because of all the craziness I’ve seen and heard within my own circle with bipolar disorder.

    Now that I'm finally on mood stabilizers, I'm able to sleep, and I’m not overly depressed or overly anxious.
    I was told being on Zoloft is what caused the majority of my manic episodes.

      At the same time, this cop's kid wasn't in full control of her faculties because she had a severe and untreated mental illness, which calls into question how much she was "responsible" for her actions. And the law has adapted to this reality, that's why "defense by mental defect or illness" is a thing and why courts today would much rather have the mentally ill receive medical treatment rather than incarcerate them.
      If you want to throw the mentally ill into prison with murderers and rapists, I think that speaks quite a bit about you.

    This confuses me this episode. I’ve watched SVU be terrible with representation for some Mental health issues. I was misdiagnosed as bipolar 2 for 5 years, and January this year I was correctly diagnosed with borderline. I tell this because the misrepresentation hurts to listen to. So when I watch this after seeing them get it wrong many years later in another season about a runner with bipolar and the way they act like meds fix you immediately shocks me.
    This is the representation I wish I remembered when I was diagnosed. Not the other example. While I’m actually struggling with another disorder any representation of mental illness is so violently important to me. This hits me unlike many episodes. This hits me over the head and makes me feel seen.
