Does anyone know if people with bipolar be highly sensitive as well? This may be a duh question, but I would like to confirm it?

Here, we are amongst Bipolars.So I don't know if we are more relaxed.
Elsewhere, in my life I can flip and screw people over for mistakes.Verbally.

i recently read a great post from Someone in this group who had outlined their senitivities in a post related to their manic state.

I had thought being sensitive was only because I was a Pisces, but then I am also sensitive because I was sexually abused and that experience brought out the sensitivities. Now i can add BP to the bunch.

Oh the Joy of life! Now i would just like to be 'sensitive' to the right lottery numbers! lolol

I think people with any type of mental disorder are more sensitive. We rely on our senses to help us make decisions and function. Just like someone who is deaf or blind.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
