Hi Roslynn,
Sure, no problem. I just figure most here had already heard me go on about it--hate to be a bore:)
Last summer I was 'offically' dx'd with chronic ptsd (childhood/young adult issues) comorbid with, of course, major depression.
Answered many questions for me--anxiety issues, triggering situations, why stabilizers didn't work. I suppose my landscape resembles GAD quite a bit.
Never was dx'd as BP II. NOS and cyclothymia, and that for ten plus years.
I did some reading on my own, came to the conclusion that c-ptsd fit best, and when presented with printouts, my pdoc, after observing me for over a year concurred. It began, I think, with my asking him why he no longer had me on any mood stabilizers....
A long answer:)
I'm sorry you are having such discomfort!
