I suppose I should note that given my experience at my last job, I am now paranoid that people are talking about me when they speak in low, hushed tones that I can't hear. Especially since these people are usually loud in the office. This probably has nothing to do with bipolar disorder but is likely a natural reaction to having a history of pe...
