Sometimes I gotta wonder why all these subtypes and nuances matter for treatment restistant people. We only have a limited number of drug classes and drugs, and all we can really do is try them and see what happens.

I'm severely treatment resistant and am all over the map. Some ADs make me sleep all day and gain weight, others make me go through the roof. Some make me suicial, or give me mixed states. Many mood stabilizers are heavily sedating, while others are severely destabilizing. Benzos are depressogenic and sleep inducing. It never ends, and it's not as simple as avoiding ADs because they make it worse. So again, I wonder what having 12 different types of bipolar really does to solve anyone's problem.
