any bipolar 2s here?

Posted by rudialexander on December 23, 2004, at 13:03:28

My new meds doc (I moved regions) thinks I'm "bipolar 2" and not unipolar depression with ADD. So he has me on 5 different meds besides Effexor-- which I took, mostly successfully, for years. The med I like is Provogil (modafinil) which focuses me more, but most of the others seem like overkill. And I must admit, I feel weird about being called bipolar-- somehow it seems more serious. I'm wondering-- are there any other unipolars out there who got re-diagnosed? Did your doctor explain why? Do you think bipolar 2 is just a fad? Did your doc add meds, and did they make you feel better?
