Sometimes I can relate to other bipolars on here, sometimes barely, sometimes not at all. I'm dx with bipolar 1 with psychosis NOS. That's what my pdoc put down, he put psychosis NOS because he isn't sure whether or not I have schizoaffective, I have psychosis at times with no mood episode present. Doesn't matter to me anymore.

I have a friend who was dx as Bipolar NOS, her and I couldn't be more different. She tends to usually be depressed, and only slight hypomania that is short lived. I am about half and half, slightly leaning to the manic or mixed side more. My mania can lasts months. She doesn't experience psychosis, I experience it almost every manic or mixed episode. We can relate to each other a bit, but we're pretty far apart.

I have a hard time relating mania to fun, good times. Mania is more like terror for me, not so fun.
