And there is another subtype: bipolar disorder not otherwise specified (NOS). Thats when You might have traits of bp but its not full blown. Or even mood disorder NOS. My first dx was recurrent depression. Later mood disorder NOS and later bipolar (mainly mixed state). I think thats the sequence for the majority of us.

Dx: Mix anhedonia with Bipolar II. Add some insomnia and chronic stress. Season with paroxetine and a pinch of ADD. Stir well to induce a couple of hypo/manic episodes. After the excess of energy is gone, remove the Paroxetine and serve chilled with some C-PTSD and GAD. Ready is your MDD.
Mx: To clean up the mess use lamotrigine, risperidon, mirtazapine and sertraline. Let it soak in for a while but keep a close eye on it. Meanwhile enjoy your desert of oxazepam/temazepam prn.
