No, she saw a shrink for awhile when she came to live with me. She's bi polar. very bi polar. That part is not in question. She's always had the same behavioural traits but now they are exxaggerated x 10.

Well, I just got an email from her. Evidently she let the free shrink dole out some pills. She said she was on seroquil first but it was in her words " nasty". She says now she is on Nortryptaline which she says is not helping much but it's not messing with her. She is limited to email by phone so she only writes sentences and until tomorrow I canT phone her. I'm never sure how much of what she says is true though. I don't know what this new shrinks diagnosis is. I'm appalled that they diagnose so quickly barely having a conversation with her once. She has a tendancy to try to get people to like her and hide the worst parts of herself. She is a genius, very charismatic, exceptionally beautiful. You know come to think of it she never said it was the free shrink. It may just be the doctor that she has a crush on giving her pills. He's given her valium before. sigh.

Yes I am sure there is something else going on that when combined with the bipolar, makes for a monstrous personality. Unless she gets to a good shrink, I don't know if it will ever be diagnosed. If i could just win the lottery or something.... There IS a really cool person underneath all of this. If there were not, I could'nt have hung on this long.

She's not going to do anything i suggest.

Thanks for the book reference. I think I'll pick up a copy, read it, and send it to her.
