I've read quite a few blog and social media post of bipolar people not responding well to meditation. Neither have I. I actually thought I might have seen your post before.
People don't seem to accept either that 1. You're tired and have been willing to try a lot, 2. Even the mystical panacea doesn't help.
I don't see it close to resembling any kind of manic episode, and the professionals didn't either.
Sounds like somebody worked too much, started having seizures, and burnt out.
I'm not particularly fond of diagnosing people, I think it's part of reducing "bipolar", either through projection or through normality, which it's not, it's miserable.
But I am particularly fond of having companies be responsible for the health of employees, regardless of what it is, or what they need.
