Manic depression is about buying a dozen bottles of Heinz tomato ketchup and all eight bottles of Windex in stock at the Food Emporium at Broadway at 4am, flying from Zurich to the Bahamas and back to Zurich in three days to balance the hot and cold weather (my 'sweet and sour' theory of bipolar disorder), carrying $20,000 in $100 bills in your shoes in...
