So I was just diagnosed a month or so ago. I've always had problems with depression since I was 12. Well I fell into one of the worst depressions I'd ever experienced a year ago and was put on Effexor. And then I lost my mind and was manic for months. Spending, risky behaviors, tons of energy, pressured speech.. You name it. I was textbook manic. My doctor said it was antidepressant induced mania and that I was bipolar. He had me go off of the effexor l, and I think I might still be experiencing withdrawals, along with trying to adjust to new meds. I guess what I've seen with these ups and downs ive been having may not be the bipolar and more from the meds? Because I go from being very very down to feeling GREAT (What I'd consider hypomanic) in a matter of days. Is this too quick of a cycle? I guess I'm just trying to figure out what the beep is going on with my moods.. I see my doctor on Tues and I'm going to bring this up. But is it even possible to cycle that quickly?
