From my own personal experience, having this dx from early childhood (although I might have been through many different dx's, I feel this was the actual dx) I can certainly tell you that at age 40, I am battling bp harder than ever, and I don't know whether it's because of brain chemicals, hormones, interpersonal relationships, exercise choices, or what, or ALL of the above. I have more episodes, more intense depressions that come on quicker, and I seem to need a whole heck of a lot more meds to get myself stablized than usual.....
Oh well, maybe it's just me.....
