I have bipolar 1 and I’m a recovering (sober) alcoholic. It makes me so angry when people use these diagnoses as an excuse to just be terrible people.

And anyone can be selfish, with or without a diagnosis.

As someone with bipolar disorder who's actually been through several very traumatic extreme manic phases in my life, I'm insulted that someone would try to use that as an excuse. If that's part of your bipolar disorder it's an extremely disruptive symptom that you have a history of. It doesn't just conveniently happen to you in the middle of a fake kidnapping you've setup. It's incredibly insulting and makes me very, very angry.🤬

[@belle9438]

You know it's not a symptom. I have several very close family members who were diagnosed as teenagers. One of them took his life at 24. Unlike his brother, he never said a word about what he was going through. Now it's been passed down to another generation. It's like a lot of other conditions one is susceptible too. Both parents carry the gene and it's pass down. She may be bipolar but her defense was reaching for straws using it as an excuse. I agree with you, it's very insulting.

[@serenitythroughdiscoveryho8448]

Right with you. I'm bipolar one. It happens and there are usually signs that it is about to get bad. Increase in rate of speech, flight of ideas (like grand scale ideas that never reach the the planning phase) unfinished projects, agitation, euphoria, lack of sleep, lack of appetite... they vary from person to person and are typically life long once you've had one. My first hypo manic episode was when I was 14. I was severely abused by a diagnosed narcissist which elevated my disorder and I had my first mania 7 years ago. I have one to two manias per year, and then fall straight to depression as I am a rapid cycler. This is not a disorder to use as an excuse! This is why the stereotype around disorders like this is so bad. It's disgusting. Thank you for your comment. We are not what people think we are and it's people like this who keep it that way.

“Nobody outside this room would believe I would concoct a story like this.” Jasmin obviously could tell she’d use anyone to achieve her goal.

Now that’s some real privilege, money for those two lawyers Dr’s to testify on her mental condition at the time. If she gets off and stays with Reid I predict one will murder the other within a decade. I’m not sure which is more incredulous, Reid believing his wife is innocent or Quinn believing no one would ever believe she would fake her own kidnapping.

[@SynsityGW]

I doubt he stayed because he believed her. He probably stuck around long enough to try and get her off without jailtime for their children's sake, then divorced her when it was all said and done. What a true parent would do, despite his own personal feelings on the situation. The fact that he has to pay her alimony is mind boggling though.

[@dixierae6063]

I really can't help but feel that this entire thing was planned by her as a means of getting attention. She's right why would she attempt to go through all this trouble for $50,000 that she could have taken out of the bank. Unless for some reason her husband was in control of the finances but this wasn't mentioned. I mean they said he made $70,000 a month. I mean if she could not access the cash why didn't she at least sell her car and say it was stolen. None of it makes any sense except for she wanted to play a victim and have her 15 minutes of fame. Someone mentioned her being dropped off completely naked and as soon as I saw that I thought that's the behaviour of a drama queen. I mean who would do that except for someone seeking attention. As always the heartbreaking part is she has a child and they are always the most innocent victim in this type of thing. Can't believe she's working in a treatment centre but to be honest I've worked in several and they have a tendency to have some pretty questionable staff.
