Question to bipolar folk, does the show portray mania particularly well? Not withstanding the fact that everyone experiences mental illness somewhat differently. As someone with MDD, I thought the way they have shown depression so far to be sensitive and accurate.
I also like how they've been dealing with the interplay between illness and work, perceptions of reality, etc.
I wonder if they have someone in the mental health field advising them. It's unusual for shows to be so on the ball.
