Bipolar disorder is often aggravted by stress and I honestly think that this would not be a good idea for him right now. Maybe later and after he is more emotionally stable, he can revisit this, but I think it really would be a bad idea right now.
as someone who has bipolar disorder, i can vouch for what ocean said. stress happens to be a *huge* factor in making my moods unstable and causing me to rapid cycle. therefore, i never take on more than i think i can realistically handle. i think travis would be well-served if he followed ocean's advice.

aside from that, some issues concerning mental health should be discussed with a therapist and/or psychiatrist -- not a forum.
