I agree. That is Kay Jamison's point, too. The old term Manic Depressive Illness (or Manic Depressive Psychosis, even more self-explanatory) depicts the illness for what it mostly is - the only thing it misses, big time, is anxiety. "mood disorder" or "affective disorder" also misses anxiety. For me now when I have no mood problems but have bouts with anxiety every evening, pretty much, these terms are insufficient. I want a term that accounts for anxiety... Maybe that is not possible.
