Okay, so I'm going to try and be as quick as possible on here. I just went to my doctor today (she isn't exactly a psychiatrist or psychologist), but she and I got into a big discussion on my constant mood swings and depression. Also, we talked about my anger episodes especially the ones I forget parts of and I go around pretty much hitting anything and everything regardless of them being human or not. I told her about the days of when I was on Abilify and how they seemed better, but I had to get off of it because I'm diabetic and it made my sugars run really high all the time. Anyways, basically she recommended a psychiatrist that should help me and she herself was wondering if I might be Bipolar. This is the third time this has been mentioned to me when tell someone this. I know I had just mentioned she's not a psychiatrist or psychologist, but she does have background with those fields an she's also the one who currently prescribes me my meds. I know no one and even I couldn't diagnose me, but thoughts?
Thanks
