text: i have this crazy friend that is like bi-polar what do i do about him stay friends or not? his name is brett and he screams at me alot and one minute he is not my friend and the next hour he is.  it really scares me what should i do i don't want to just stop being his friend but i am really kind of scared make clear to him that his attitude really scares and upsets you, that you would like him to change it. if he doesn`t, he either needs professional support or you`d better stay aloof for a while and see what happens.
