It's hard to sort out quickly, could take years.

I have BP1, SAD, GAD, ADHD.

For me the hardest is GAD. The thing that works best for me (benzos) docs don't want to give me for very long and any thing else is very little effective. Zoloft helps a lot and got rid of all my SAD, but not my GAD.

And being BP we get the stereotype that we are all drug abusers, alcoholics, and will have sex with any one. That's the first question I get asked when I see a new doc, do I do drugs and alcohol. Sure I was all that when I was younger, but I'm 58 now and all I do is drink moderately and no sex. Yet I still have to deal with that crap. I feel like saying just give me the damn benzos and shut the F up.

Good luck to you!
