So my shrink tells me I may be bi-polar, manic depressive, or something like that. Which makes a lot of sense, every bad thing in my life can be categorized into manic or depressed. What I'm concerned about in this post is that if I'm always in some state of mania or depression, where is the real me? Does the real me actually exist or am I a merely a culmination of mental distress?

Albany, huh? I grew up there, though I'm in Corvallis now. Struggled an awful lot with depression over the years.
What is the "real" you? You're always there, both in the highs and the lows. It's not that YOU will change, but some of your habits will. I understand the fear you're expressing, but I can tell you from my own experience it didn't turn out to be that way.
If you'd like to talk more, feel free to leave a note at my OD.
