I agree with ultramar above and would simply like to add these names or titles or categories we get placed in come from where exactly? Oh yea the mental health profession. In other words friends, bipolar did not exist until the mental health field identified it. Same with every disorder. Many people are often misdiagnosed and very often the mental field will change it's criteria even opinion, adding new disorders, removing some, and modifying some.

So at the end of the day what we worry most about is what we will be tagged. One could poetically say mental illness is created by the mental health profession
