The reason Mike is offensive is because of how it is portrayed; he is a deus ex machina running gag. People with disorders have written blogs and hate mail to Fresh about how insulted they were by his character's existence. Not only does he ignore his doctor's warning to not come on the show TWICE, but he also tries to kill himself the very second he thinks it might act up. He is also terrible with telling others about his condition, even when it is going to endanger their life. If he cared about Zoey he would break up with her...

Sorry just got off topic there. But my point is that many see it as an insulting portrayal of one of the most serious and horrific mental disorders; one that causes a good amount of suicide and murder.
