Hello, my name is B. I was recently hospitalized for a psychotic episode, where I was diagnosed as having Bipolar disorder with psychogenic pain. Before then I took two anti-depressants for years for depression. The day of my episode was the scariest day of my life, one that I do not want to repeat. Since then I have been in recovery. I am trying to put myself and my life back together, while trying to figure out what this new diagnosis means for me. I am on new meds and can tell an immediate improvement, however, other symptoms have started to appear. I am looking for answers, anywhere and everywhere, and support can only help me.
Thanks.
