That's exactly how I am. I don't do one thing, I do 20 at one time. Same with talking. My thoughts are all over the place. The doctors say my thoughts are racing. I can start on one subject and end up somewhere else and forget where I was going with it all. My moods are the same. I stay depressed and at times feel really bad, then back to depressed, then every once in a while I feel elated and feel like I could accomplish everything I ever wanted to, and then two hours later back to really bad depressed. All of this in one day! Everyday! They said I was Bipolar 2. The doc gave me Seroquel. He said for a mood stablizer and to help stop the racing thoughts so I can sleep. I've read the discription for Borderline and that is me to a T! I have every symptom and always thought I was the only one that felt this way until I read about it on a bipolar website. No doctor will even listen to me if I mention it to tell them how I feel. They say that a lot of diagnosed can be crossed into each other and that's it. The one psychiatrist in the mental health hospital I was in said I only had major depression because my mood swings didn't involve the major manic episodes. Until now, no one thought much about all of the mood swings. They always insisted on me taking antidepressants and nothing else. I never realized that they would make me worse. It's too soon to tell if the cocktail I'm on is going to work. I can just tell you, you're not alone on this one.
