it is interesting.since i started reading posts from others'over the past year,i wondered if i was bipolar in one way or another? my first pdoc diagnosed - atypical phycosis?? wrong,i was admitted to the phyc.ward and there began my journey. all the typical a/ds - mellaril,largactil,orap,neuliptil and ect.1 year later i was a mess and was maintained on clomipramine,surmontil and clonazepam for approx.13yrs. i started seeing a new pdoc about 6yrs ago and he rediagnosed - ocd ?? started on the ssris'with mixed results.i asked him on my last visit about bipolar and he kinda shuffled around in his chair and said "hmmm,it's possible but i'm more inclined to stick with your major depression-anxiety disorder." so much for ocd.he did presribe depakote to help combat the anger but i found it to increase my depression. i'm sure theres' a doc out their somewhere that would label me with bipolar. bottom line is finding those magic beans,no matter what i'm diagnosed with.
