Glad things worked out for you. I was misdiagnosed with depression for about 20 years, mainly because my mania didn't get me in really bad trouble ( though there were times I should've been). I already had a borderline diagnosis but didn't get bipolar until a few years ago, when I've run the gamut of antidepressants. My pdoc decided to put me on Lamictal and things were a whole lot better.
