Thanks, whatever, for reaching out. I am using my phone now rather than puter and am a super slow phone typist. I get impatient w myself. Sorry.

However, I am still in a now 3 month-long depression and have been both manic and psychotic over the past week or so. It is certainly possible that those things are related to language use. For example, my French is significantly better when hypo than when depressed. It does seem clear from fmri work that bipolar illness can have a big impact on language processing, so...

Thank you.
