Yes !!!What Miguelsmom said! It is not common for a Pdoc to hand out a diagnosis of Bipolar the first visit. Many doctors monitor a patient for weeks or months before they are ready to make an "official diagnosis." It can often be even longer when diagnosing a teenager due to hormonal issues going on.. The main thing to remember is getting help whether it be medication, therapy or more often than not both.
