Communication demands classes, classifications. You used these:
diseases
bipolar med
unipolar person
mood disorders
mood stabilizersTo say someone is in bipolar spectrum doesn't define them, it just provides a general way of referring that gives guidance and allows further exploration. Some things require being knowingly simplified due to their complexity.
But I'm getting off topic here by moving into language.> Classifications are useless. They are only implemented to simplify the treatment of certain diseases.
