Umm, well yeah.. I'd kinda like to know..

So my question is, is this common in diagnosing Bipolar?
Just kind of confused..

What's been your experience in being diagnosed?
I just outright asked my pdoc when I was first diagnosed if I was BPI or BPII.

He told me BPII.

A few years later, I had a full blown manic episode and I "upgraded" to BPI.
