Doctors throw out diagnosis' with no second thought at times.
ANYONE can get a depression diagnosis and if you happen to have a few hours of happy or rage its automatically BIPOLAR! Dont you just love their diagnostic skills. Then they put patients on life changing medication, which isnt always for the best.
Sure HEAPS of people have BIPOLAR but IMO more are misdiagnosed or just told bipolar for insurance and medication purposes.
