Hi,

For so long now I have known my Primary Diagnosis was Bipolar, only never could get an answer as to what type.

So the other day when my case manager / T / had me to read my treatment plan for this 6 month time period I wrote down the 4 diagnosis codes from the treatment plan. So then I Looked up the first code in the code place here.

296.62 -is the first on my Axis 1 thing.

It is Bipolar 1 Disorder Most recent Episode Mixed.
and /Moderate/

I do feel better knowing which type of Bipolar I am so I can study it more better.

Also 300 - Anxiety Disorder NOS - not sure what that one means.

And 314.01 - Attention Deficit Hyperactivity / Predominatly Hyper / Impulse type

The forth one I feel they are full of lies and it is not any part of me. They just gave me that diagnosis so they could get more funding out of me. I told this to the case manager. She could not agree or disagree.

I feel alot better knowing the 3 true diagnosis than being not knowing what disorders I have, yet still so much to learn. Just wanted to share that relief I have gotten from knowing the diagnosis and no longer being in the dark about what I have.

Thank you for reading this. If anyone has understanding or advice on these different diagnoses I would appreciate it--Thanks again
