Have been treated with sssr's for last 20yrs for Depression, also on Diazapam & Tamazapam for last 15yrs, say P doc yesterday, as I am convinced that my symptoms are more in common with Bipolar dissorder, and feel I have been diagonsed wrongly. I asked him if I could possibbly be suffering bipolar, and he immediately jumped (i felt) in with NO!, when I asked him to explain why he was so sure, his answer was, that if I had biopolar Dissorder, then I would of either been, "Hospitalized, or gotten into trouble during my "High" periods.!!!!!!!

He refused to change my Antidepressant from Prozac to something else, and that when I ? him about being on Diazapam and Tamazapam on high doses for over 10 yrs could not be good, he said "All the more reason to stop these ones gradualy, and as I said I was not prepaired to carry on with Prozac as my episodes have become decidedly worse over last 11 months on this, I am left with occupational thereapy!!???
I am at the end I have no more fight left, I need some sort of help as I have resorted to self harming once again, which is to distract me from doing worse to myself...... confused and desperate Kokopelli????
