Hi Markwell,
I meant that with some full manic episodes in your history, how was the dx nos arrived at? I thought nos was always non-manic. True though, you mentioned the mania was drug induced.
I believe you when you say you aren't doing well. My pdoc says bpnos is an
awful dx because it's so difficult to treat and it's symptoms are all over. I was treated as bpnos for many years. I've read about it lots, but I could never quite figure it out.I am so sorry it been rough for so long. You are remaining proactive, so that's very good. You have my ongoing best wishes.
(Because of my own issues, I accidentally bumped into a neuropsychologist who helps folks get through the disability process which can be stressful. She's on the west coast and works with fibromyalgia and cfs clients. Maybe others. I was looking for health treatment, but could dig up her number if you think she'd at least be a starting point in your search.)
