A friend and her BiPolar friend?!

A friend and her BiPolar friend?

A friend of mine had her friend move in with her, she's bipolar. Her friend drove all the way from Fl. to NY with just the clothes on her back and nothing else. When she got there she went shopping for clothes deodorant etc. Then she spent $300 on a weed whacker to do my friends lawn. She was on the go none stop. Someone said it's a Manic episode and that she needs help. She told me she stopped taking her meds. My friend and me got into an argument and I left. The woman is still living in her house. Will she "Crash" will she cause fights between each other? Will she start treating my friend bad because of her mood swings? Also do bipolar people stay long in one spot living I mean or do they move alot? I'm thinking she'll end up going back home after a few months. Any answers will help. Thanks.

Yes, she sounds like she is manic and she will likely experience a bout of depression sometime in the future, that will probably be when she decides to go back on her meds. I don't know that she'll necessarily cause fights, it depends on how severe her mood gets. She really needs to go back on her meds, but probably won't listen until she is depressed.

I have bipolar and I've been stable where I live, however, it seems that this girl is being irrational and really needs her meds.
