I wonder if there's ever been a hypochondriac for whom the disease of focus was, actually, hypochondria. I mean, it's a catch-22. The patient would say, "doc, I think I have hypochondria." And the doctor could say, "well sir, you don't really have hypochondria, you're just imagining it." But as soon as he said that, he would be calling the patient a hypochondriac. This one keeps me up late at night trying to figure out. lol

It's been suggested this weird reaction could be because I'm bipolar...I don't know. It seems like what has been described to me as a mixed state...kinda like anxiety/mania/depression all rolled into one. Have you tried a mood stabalizer? It seems you've only tried drugs that, alone, might make bipolar worse (I don't know about Zyprexia and bipolar...that might be OK). Just a suggestion, I don't really know what I'm talking about, but I needed to ramble.
