I think the problem lies in his "having his cake and eating it too." If you're willing to endure being beaten so badly that you need to have photo documentation to get through your "process", then that's on you. (still need to reevaluate your goals and sanity, but i digress.) But don't turn around AFTER you cross and push blame. Don't be a fool by allowing others to put you in foolish situations, then get upset after the fact.
However, the fact that he is bipolar explains a lot... imo you have to have some kind of imbalance or low self esteem problem or generally mucked up mindset to put a "process" before your physical health and well being to that degree (i'm assuming he was beaten pretty badly-- I haven't seen the pics) and if he was in a manic or depressed state while he was being hazed (either one is probable) and is more balanced and able to think clearly now-- there's your answer.
BUT the fact that he had the presence of mind to take those photos says that he had it in for his "big brothers" all along.
BUT it could have been his roomate's idea to take the pics, as a preemptive measure.
I'm just trying to look at all sides. Devil's advocate
