But I also see some bipolar traits as well. The mood swings can be completely random, I'm pretty sure I've been going through a hypomanic episode, and unlike the usual borderline, my anger isn't inward. It's outward. But I don't wanna try a psychiatrist tbh. Imo, they're mostly people who have a god complex who wanna feel like they control someone else's life. My therapist is really understanding and all, so I might find a doctor that will take his suggestions and act as a psychiatrist in place.
I have a family doctor who does not want to prescribe any psychotropic medications. I hope you find a doc who is comfortable prescribing psychotropics as I can't find one. A random mood disorder with mania does sound like bipolar and sometimes it can be tricky to treat so I wish you the best and I hope you feel better soon.
