Hi:
In my case, my pdoc. evidently had 'enough' proof I had Bp, even though my intial problems were mostly consisted with depressive episodes, ... never had 'hypomania' symptoms.

Then, I totally agree with SLS, ... if you have Bp trait either/both of your parents' sides, you are mostly likely dxed with Bp, not 'unipolar depression.'

I had Bipolar trait, in my father's side, his grandmother who was instituted in the psycho./insane ward where she spent several years and eventually died.

In my guess, ... most of pdocs. rx'd an SSRI in order to dx. as accurately and quickly as possible, because some of M.I. folks do NOT tell everything you have in the brain. If this would happen, the delay on your prognosis along with 'chaos,' such as 'hospitalization' is unavodable. For that reason, I feel VERY grateful my pdoc. found my 'true' problem, Bp, as fast as possible. Otherwise, I might have ended up at a psycho.ward. that must be most dreadful place for me to imagine.

On my very first trip to the pdoc.'s office, I was maily asked whether or not I have mental illness in my family, rather getting a script. On my next trip that took place within five days, I got an SSRI. Afterwards I got the script and took an SSRI for about a week. However,I was dxed with Bp. Since then, my journey of Bp started.
H.G.
