Well, I got sort of attacked. A friend of my fiances said that I wasn't bipolar because I wasn't depressed for long periods or manic for long periods of time, it was something else because my mood changes quicker than that.

I mean he was VERY persistent, saying my doc was stupid and I should quit my meds, that I should know deep down inside I wasn't bipolar. This man admits he bases this on one psych class he took in college.

I told my caseworker that someone said I wasn't bipolar and he immediately said I was rapid cycling with psychosis. He reassured me I was diagnosed right and was on the right meds.

Anyway, how do I approach this man again? I was told he thinks he is right all thew time and doesn't accept when someone says he is wrong.
