@HN @freemo great piece @wilw takes a lot to be this honest and open (for me anyway).

@wilw
Hey man, just saw this from our HN bot. Just wanted to offer my condolences and if there is anything I can do to help don't hesitate to ask.

I agree with Alan, complete respect for sharing, it will mean a lot to people going through similar. Respect!

@absolutus @HN

@freemo @wilw @absolutus @HN Yeah, dude. Bipolar disorder here, this stuff is rough. I'm no more ashamed that I'm bipolar than I would be if I had Lupus. I was born this way. My brain-meat just doesn't spit out the chemicals it's supposed to. Always around to talk if you need some random ear on the internet.

@Surasanji Nothing but my sympathies. I hope you never feel the need to be ashamed here on

The community here will love you regardless, we all just want to see you happy, I know I do.

@wilw @absolutus @HN

@freemo @wilw @absolutus @HN Thanks, Man! I always appreciate a supportive community.

@Surasanji
You're welcome. Thats exactly what I'm trying to build here. Decent people who legitimately care about all their fellow humans.
