I'm having the same trouble getting mine pinned down, too. I guess it's the OCDish part of me that wants a number assigned to my diagnosis, when the reality is that pdocs supposed to treat the SYMPTOMS and not a numerical value. I want it all neat and tied up with a bow, is that too much to ask? Hahaha!!

It's changed a couple of times, from NOS to a squishy 2 and back to NOS. However, I'll probably end up with the BP 1 designation since I've had a major mixed episode, plus full-on mania. Dunno....it's all bipolar, and it's all a pain in the patoot.
