Hi!

I had much the same experience as Suzy, but I was treated with anti-depressants for EIGHT years before being dx'd bipolar. Again, it took a while to get the meds right, but I've been feeling really good most of the time...I've even started school!

I don't blame you for being scared, but it will be OK...you have to be patient and persistent. (Yes, I realize those are the two hardest things for BP's to be...lol). But, you will be OK in the end. Don't stop seeking if you don't feel well the first or second time!

I wish you good luck.
