Yes. Could not
be more true. Sure, I'm dx'd BP II, but there are times when it impacts me severely. Also some paranoia, but according to the DSM, I'm II. There have been "incidents" that make me wonder though. They've been pretty "out there". Like BlackPup says, "who is the judge of severity"? Who indeed?
(But the huge multiplier of depression in BP II -- how I wish I could not relate to that, but there it is.)
