Ask HN: What's a bipolar Lisp programmer to do?

Stories like this ring all too true for me: http://www.lambdassociates.org/blog/bipolar.htm

So my question is, if one realizes that he has such tendencies how does he cope? I see it as a hurdle not a roadblock but I don't have the slightest clue where to start with this one.

Use your smartness to install routines and hacks in your life to help you cope with down phases. Use your up phases to the fullest of your potential. Help Lisp environment to become better and better.
Get medical help asap. This isn't something to fool around with or do do on your own. Its as dangerous as having cancer.
