Fair point. Typically though, a family history is one of the things to look at. I've done a lot of intake forms for PTSD and mentally challenged and handicapped people. It causes you to read alot. People with mood disorders are close to my heart. Cyclothymia is more rare, but the mood swings are less impactful usually. The rate at which people throw around bipolar, schitzo, crazy and such really should cause people to research more. Those false label can really get stuck in a truly sick person's head.
I'm very aware of Winter's cycling. I can't seem to recall too many same day switching for Ari, but it seems plausible as only a small portion of what we see is on the forum and almost definitely curated. Meh... just my 2 cents
/2 cents
Bipolar (and other affective [mood] disorders) are genetic linked at about 80%. Severe environmental circumstances can also be a source, especially during developmental stages. There is also a connection with extraordinary societal disruptions (i.e. war, famine, murder, even entering a completely different society).
Just for conversation, cycling rarely, if ever, occurs in bipolar on a daily basis. When you encounter it, it's more often a personality disorder and/or an attempt at manipulation (which should make a person question the personality). Ahri will flip, or dismiss, when ever it suits his objectives, depending on the person he's interacting with and their interaction. Classic personality disorder.
But this is just my gut feeling based on his online personality. I could be wrong, but doubt it. Sorry Ahri, you get what you give.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
