In reply to bipolar or not (long), posted by bark2323 on March 7, 2004, at 12:41:19

I am BP2 and have GAD. So far I think that BP2 is a pretty broad label - we have to be put *somewhere* that mainly assists in a medication selection to help in controling symptoms. I would think that for any of us to be text-book BP2 would be well nigh impossible. That is what makes us so wonderfully human.

My personal experience is that the hypomania is so quick in cycling that my p-doc does not want to prescribe a mood stablizer. Besides becoming irritable, I am also taller, smarter, and more slender when manic. How very fab! I also believe very strongly in the cyclic nature of this disease. For example (and this is pretty far out) I believe that the phase of the moon affects my cycling.

My meds are effexor xr, buspar, and xanax. Hope this helps.
