Do you feel like you have bipolar superpowers?

okay, real question. Do any of you feel like you have bipolar super powers or abilities? Not kidding. I feel like I'm hyper-aware of my surroundings and my ability to fixate on things makes me good at puzzles. I also see my self as a deeply empathic person, to the point of accurately gaging others emotions I think that these are traits of my BD and they wouldn't be present without it. So does anyone else feel that way about any of their traits? Just curious.

I feel that way about my bipolar traits as well. Like sometimes I can get overstimulated and that kinda sucks but other times I am amazing at finding things, and I'm very perspicacious in general.

I'm extremely empathic. Sometimes to a fault :/ I can also sense energies, and am super sensitive to them.

I have always had feelings of being an empath and when I asked my therapist if I was possibly linked to my BPD she said yes. I'm not sure exactly how but yeah
