Again, I must have looked at him like he was on fire. *slaps forehead* Oh, get along with her? Why didn't I think of that. Wanted to tell him to get bent.

My MIL is very difficult and caused a lot of problems in my marriage. Last Oct. she moved away to live by her "better" goldenboy son and life has been so much better! Now they are complaining about her and we tried to warn them but they thought they could handle things better. The last laugh is on them. There are some people that NOBODY can get along with, and my MIL is one of them. NOBODY can stand to be around her!I'm sorry....we all MUST be talking about the same woman. Is MY MIL disguising herself as your MIL and write1's MIL? Causing problems, difficult? Must be one in the same! And, as for "just getting along with her?" Eat dirt buddy! Geesh, I'd tell him where to get off Write1, and do you have to go with this p-doc, can you get a 2nd opinion.
What are the symptoms you have of bi-polar, maybe you're actually ADHD or ADD - inattentive. ADD and bi-polar are VERY hard to tell apart UNLESS you have an ADD specialist. Go to www.amenclinic.com and take the self analysis, and then take an online bi-polar quiz. And if it sounds like you, go to www.addforums.com and do some reading. It's not difinitive of course, BUT wouldn't you want to be more positive before taking the meds? What does he have you on, if you don't mind my asking, and what are your symptoms? Maybe your grandmother was actually ADD.
Too bad your T wouldn't comment, but I think her silence might have spoken volumes.
