...is manic depressive?

I've just startled myself by the thought that a relative's behavior could be explained by manic depression. This person is almost forty years old and famous for alternating fits of depression-fatigue and "projects" that bring a mixed lot of irritability and euphoria.

Goodness. It could be manic depression. I know one thing right off the bat -- the person would be HIGHLY RESISTANT to any suggestion that something needs evaluation. The person is in a profession that includes counseling other people on serious personal matters and is trained in interpersonal communication techniques.
