Same I have been on SSRI's for 11 years. I was diagnosed about a year and a half ago. I was in a controlling relationship when that ended I thought that was my reason for being depressed. Then I obviously when on a mania , I was so happy partying and doing what I wanted. I met someone else and a year in he said it's like your manic or something. That was my light bulb moment. I went to hospital and saw the duty Dr where yep I have bipolar. I was very lucky not to be hospitalized. I'm still on SSRI's and seroquel , my Pdoc then going to take me off the SSRI's.
