Hi, all, coming back to clarify a few things.

I don't believe I am bipolar. I only had one medical professional, the quack, ever diagnose that. I've had 5 subsequently say I wasn't and confirm they believe is is PTSD plus anxiety.

Teacake, you inquired about the Dr. who put me on Prozac knowing I was diagnosed with bipolar orginally. Because of concern that an SSRI could push me into mania. Well, yes, it is my current, really awesome Pdoc who prescribed Prozac. We also dabbled with Cymbalta, but I didn't feel it had any significant advantages, and my co-pay was a LOT more. So, back to the Prozac. Then I experimented and quit it on my own, and it definitely did make me more depressed. So, I went back on it. It seems to be working, my mood has lightened a lot.

RE the bipolar diagnosis - I didn't really bring the whole matter up in this thread to ask/inquire IF people thought I was bipolar, but to discuss my feelings on that diagnosis versus PTSD, which are pretty ****ed up if I do say so myself. Not that I care if posters do that, contribute thoughts about whether I am or not. Worst case scenario, people get it wrong - hey, a licensed physician did, got it totally wrong (maybe they should yank her license, lol). Best case scenario - I know all of you care, and that is awesome. I SO appreciate that. Support means everything.
