Hi Scott,
I don't really understand the Bipolar II diagnosis....I think it means moody and unpredictable, never fully manic, but sometimes really hapy - even in the midst of depression.
The guy has known me for almost 10 years, and even during a time when was often exhuberant - yet come to think of it, still in the middle of depression that was threatening my ability to be effective as an artist and seeker of singing jobs..
So I guess one day he thought "hey, when she's not in a suicidal depression, her moods are pretty changeable - even if she does lean toward the very depressed side of the spectrum"
He made this diagnosis a year and a half ago.
Scott, you are very kind.
