Hmmmm.. I'm feeling very irritated, better medicate me!!
So the "opinions of the psychiatric community"... I must assume "we" are not a part of... BS... I've begged pdoc for explanation of these symptoms in myself & older 2 teens. She says there is an epidemic of sorts going on among teens showing symptoms of both bp & bpd. She says they don't know exactly what it is but for me now to worry, treatment is the same. = Here try these meds. Our dx's are bp. We (my family) obviously also have bpd traits, so here I seek support with others who've experienced similar. I hate how controversial it gets and people sound like they want to be know it all's. ok... Guess it makes you feel better? I like debates & challenging the norm...but....
Ya I'm triggered & reacting. Don't take it too personally, this is just how I feel right now.
My ultimate point is that pdocs are trying but they don't really know what/why is going on. I sadly know people who falsify and participate in drug studies for the money. They invited me along when I was broke and I said a huge No Way, Never...
