I've had mixed episodes. I should think I'd end up with a BP 2 dx because I've never had what I've heard described as full-blown mania, but if you count the mixed moods.........well, I still don't see how that alone could make somebody a 1??

ETA: By the way, I may be a registered nurse who knows a lot of medical stuff, but when it comes to my own health issues, I tend to turn stupid and act like I've never even heard of the condition. So if I sometimes sound like an ignoramus when I post here, now you know why. LOL
