1. Think of someone who has helped shape who you are. What has this person taught you about boundaries, whether intentionally or unintentionally?
Actually, this really applies to a whole heap of people who 'shaped who I am';
Self-confidance - more specifically the fact that I can't stand it, and I certainly have no wish to ever embody it.
During some of the more pivotal periods in my life, I've been beset with self-confidant people and they invariably have a disastrous impact upon my life. People who inflict themselves upon you against your wishes; make demands upon you because what they want is all that matters; then trash your name all over town because you've failed to perform their tasks up to a standard they never even bothered to clarify for you.
Way too many people out there believe they are god's gift to the world and that you ought to be gushingly grateful for the fact that they see fit to inflict themselves upon you. The truth is that your lucky to see the end of them.
To be perfectly honest, I no longer understand why news shows insist on branding random fatalities as "tragedies" - because when I think about all the people I've had to endure in my life, it makes a rather compelling argument that people are moreover burdens that we a lucky to be liberated from, rather then assets that enrich our lives. Why? Because their mostly all so self-confidant, they don't care about how much they drag the world around them down.
That's why I do my damnedest not to be self-confidant myself. Most people are already too burdened by self-confidant people they know themselves. I don't want to add to that suffering. I want to counter-act it. I want to be an asset to peoples' lives. I want to be a servant who enriches their existances, rather then another demanding tax imposed upon them.
2. Are there specific areas of your life you need to set boundaries for? How do you know if you need to establish boundaries?
Probably.
I probably need to get people to state more explictly what they want from me when requests are made upon me, and how I will be rewarded for successfully completing their tasks.
It would also be nice if I could get people to stop badmouthing me for not living up to expectations that they never even clarified to begin with; and also had some way of insuring that the expectations imposed upon me were both reasonable and fair.
That's all I can think of for now.
Hi @Kermit , I have bipolar as well.
That's a good boundary around sleep and mobile phone use. I'm going to give that one some thought for my own life. I also have a boundary related to bipolar about how many activities I commit to in one day, (eg. I would rarely do more than one social activity in one day, even if it's short). It seems to help keep me steady and help me manage my emotions better. But sometimes I wonder if I'm limiting myself more than necessary. It's always a balancing act! 
Take care
