>> part bipolar,

I like that. I'd like to have a part Bipolar makeup please, with a touch of OCD, and a pinch of Anxiety thrown in - I'd say that's me.

>> but I feel guilty agreeing when it seems to be a matter of *how* bipolar one is and I'm not sure I am enough to get a label but then certainly enough to complicate treatment.

I personally know that guilt. let it go if you can... there's a spectrum of bipolar disorder, which is probably what you're mentioning and it doesn't matter if one is dysthimic or seeing ghosts and super heroes. the disorder is disruptive and needs to be treated b/c it gets worse.

> I may try the exedrin PM sometime... what makes it PM? Is it the same stuff in benadryl?

Exedrin PM sans Aspirin:

Each caplet contains: Acetaminophen (500 mg), Diphenhydramine Citrate (38 mg)

Benadryl is:

Diphenhydramine HCl (25mg - Antihistamine)

Are those the same? It's something to do with the combo in Exedrin PM, the addition of the acetaminophen, b/c the Diphen. Citrate is sold on its own and did nothing for me.

>> It's hard to tell which is responsible, but anyway there's a good trend as of late.

Good. Good luck!
