In the case of Mr. Kenneth Watson, none of these assumptions would be true, and yet he is bipolar manic.I Am Bipolar Manic is the true story of one man's psychological journey. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder very late in life, Watson spent many years as a successful businessman in England before relocating to the United States. Once in America, his success continued. It was quite a shock when his bipolar diagnosis came to light in Watson's seventies.

I Am Bipolar Manic is a look into an aging psyche, still sharp as a tack, regardless of a so-called malfunction. Overcoming adversity is only the beginning of this inspiring tale.…
