I'm not saying that there's something "wrong" with Jincz, but there is something to look into. When you end up hurting a person or destroying something, that's when it's actually become physical and it's now gone to a dangerous level. If you end up getting a mood swing in public and end up punching or hurting someone you don't know, that could lead to some serious trouble. You can' just attack someone unless it's for self defense.

Mood swings can be very unpredictable and the intensity can be unpredictable. Some people can go from maniac to pre suicidal within the timespan of one day. People with bipolar disorder (not saying you have it) has a 30-40% chance of self harm.

Going to see someone isn't to brainwash a person into conforming to society. (I have dabbled into this a little bit.) People with bipolar disorder tend to have extreme high happy points, but also, extreme low depressing stages. Most people don't seek treatment because they believe that the high points cancel out the low points. Taking medicine is only to regulate these emotions, that way, a person doesn't practically kamikaze into depression stages. It's not to completely flat line all emotion.

There is a line between trying to be "normal" and seeking correct treatment if necessary. When you're unable to complete basic functions that are practically involuntary (by this age), it's something to at least look into.

Your idea of normal must be a lot different from mine. Apparently, for you being "normal" is equivalent to a mindless zombie, when that's not really the goal of many people.

Also, considering you're a minor, your parents have the capability to stop treatment whenever. The standard of practice in obtaining the informed consent for minors 14 years of age or younger is that the parent may reject or consent. If a parent rejects treatment, the psychologist must stop treatment even though the treatment is needed. The psychologist must attempt to mitigate any damage to the child.
