Hi Emily99
thanks for clarifying.
if you are having hallucinations, my bet is they'll put you in BP1 category...but after several years of going back and forth with Dx. the specifics really don't matter as long as the medications helps the symptoms.
my journey to babble started with my (many Dx) but primarily BP2, however my hypomania usually turns dysphoric quickly.and even though i'm getting this new Dx more psychological than biological i still agree with old pdoc that i have major depression with manic tendencies...although i am MUCH better now with new Dx of know the different depressions (if biological or triggered) same with dysphoric issues. if it's biological it usually is consistant and lasts for a while. the dissociative issues come and go and are typically triggered by something.
ANYWAY...didn't mean to make this about me.
I'm glad to see you here.
and awwww....chickens! my grandparents used to have a farm and had hundreds of chickens...i have some really good memories from that place.
do you have lots or only a few?and if i can help with any questions about BP symptoms or anything just let me know...
Oh and one of my fav books that i read about bipolar is "An unquiet mind" by Kay Jamison....it was pretty easy to read and i just kept reading it and saying yep...that's me...yep...yep...and hopefully i did the double double quotes right and the book title should be blue and a link to that book.
anyway...have a good one.
