>30% of bipolar people kill themselves before age 30.
This statistic doesn't seem weird to you?
If you really believe that Bipolar disorder is genetic, and that they are so unsuccessful at life and relationships… Well then why the hell haven't they already gone extinct? Why does it need your help to remove it from the gene pool? It seems to be doing such a good job at that already. Your beliefs are not consistent.

> if it's going to be disabled, fuck it.
Again, mental illnesses are nowhere near as heritable as you seem to think. Your kid would have a slightly increased risk.

>I just don't think that people who need medication to survive before age 30 should breed.
This is a weird belief to me. I wear glasses. I can only see a short distance without them. In the ancestral environment I would be at a severe disadvantage. Yet this condition is easily fixed with modern technology so who cares?

Additionally it's worth noting that all of these things may be "diseases of civilization". There's no way, that in our natural environment, such a high percentage of humans need glasses or have depression or bipolar disorder. There's some theories that these things might be caused by our unnatural way of life. E.g. lack of exposure to sunlight seems to correlate with both depression and nearsightedness. Our diets are way different and we are way more sedentary.

>My non-verbal IQ is *only* one standard deviation above average.
You are well above average even in your worst category. You are fine. Verbal IQ is what matters anyway.

>Since I'm not a uni grad, the woman I would probably marry would be a non-uni grad, so the divorce rate would be elevated.
