Long story short (for those that didn't see my previous posts in feb) I was diagnosed bipolar but have totally doubted the diagnoses. I mean at the time the symptoms kinda seemed like it, but the reason I doubt it more than anything is the fact that i'm only on Effexor now.

Which has taken me out of my deep anxious slump. Not completely, not greatly. I still get moments where I feel quite 'out there' but nothing like before I was on it. Maybe I was misdiagnosed.

I'm just curious if anyone else feels that way. Or if anyone that truly is bipolar can be on an anti d alone? I was fairly sure you couldn't be.. I know at a higher dose of Effexor my racing thoughts and sleep gets really bad. I still have the racing thoughts, they're kinda always there. But I find my sleep is somewhat better than when I was in that deep dark hole a couple months back.

I guess I still doubt that i'm right about being misdiagnosed too, when I get the super hyper out there mood swings occasionally. Either way I feel so much better on the Effexor, but not in a 'i'm manic' kind of way. Just a less depressed version of myself I think.
