Thank you! That was very helpful and sweet of you to write that all out. I'm feeling more and more strongly that the Bipolar diagnosis is wrong [I cycle through moods VERY fast and erratically], and that PTSD is more accurate, in light of my childhood trauma, and some very intense adult trauma that got me the PTSD diagnosis in the first place.

I'm worried that the treatment for the bipolar has made me worse, as it is mainly med focused. I am now wanting to focus more on therapy. I know I need to process what I have been through. Shake it off, as it were. And while I know it will take time, it seems that there is more hope in following this route.

Again, thank you for taking the time to write.
