Pdoc apt today was better than expected.Laid it all out and he asked a miillon questions....in the end the diagnosis was BP type 2.
Im not shocked,its in the family....Im actually relieved to some extent that at least it makes sense on why Ive been so "sick",so many times.
I didnt withhold anything....including substance abuse,sh etc...He even went so far as to say that he wasnt concerned about pot use if it helps my anxiety when Im manic.He said he would rather me do that than alcohol.He also wrote a rx for anxiety during mania.....clonazepam.
Hes wrote rx for duralith....once a day ,as well.
What I was esp empressed about was NO sh,suicidal contracts....apparently he doesnt believe in them....Yea!
Said I didnt need to come back unless I felt a need to,leaving my file open in case.I imagine my family doc will take over rx's.P doc wants me to continue with therapy to help me manage or cope better.
Well thanks for reading this post and thank you all for past replies,it meant so much to me to be understood.
