Maybe you can call your T tomorrow just so he/she is aware of this.
This has never happened before that I'm aware of. Of course there was a lot of really weird stuff when I was younger but I was undiagnosed and unmedicated and did drugs. I know that split personalities are DID; and that's basically what he was asking.

but its nice your friend stuck with you and supported you.
I have rapid cycling bipolar disorder (like every 5-10 min when I'm not medicated) but I've been stable for over a year. I take seroquil, gabapenten, xanax, and have ativan for panic attacks but this is nothing like the panic attacks I've had before. Interesting thought though. It would be more comfortable to chalk it up to anxiety. It is nice that my friend stayed but I feel horrible for him, he's got his own issues he doesn't need mine. And so far he's not talking to me today... not that I blame him I said some horrible things last night.

Thank you both for your replies.
