Hello Seldomseen,That was a really nice post! I don't believe we've met which seems impossible as we've been crossing paths for months! Something you wrote caught my eye. One of my twin boys is "full on bi-polar 1". Have you ever noticed that if an immediate relative is "full on" that means you automatically are bipolar 2,lol? My old PDoc could not let go of this idea. He also couldn't get me well. I think Bpolar 2 is very hard to treat, IHHO. I'm sure there are milder forms of Bi-polar 1, but it seems the diagnosis is being used as a catch-all and thats not fair to patients.
My new PDoc gave me new dx and I am happily very close to remission. Nothing like a competant PDoc I always say!
Hope you see this,if you ever want to talk BP-1 let me know.
