You really should not take online quizzes seriously, I could take them 3 days in a row and get 3 different results.

Nailing down the "specific" Bipolar often takes time. Everyone presents differently. Pdocs have there own guidelines when diagnosing yes they all use to DSM, Some are quick to diagnosis and some prefer to sit back and watch to see how your bipolar acts and cycles.

Meanwhile your still going to be treated for the symptoms, Doesn't matter which flavor you have. There are no specific meds for I versus II etc.

It's hard not want a written in stone diagnosis.. But Bipolar is a tricky slippery beast and time will reveal it's self
