My first diagnosis was BP II. Then not BP II just MDD. Then DID added (which I agree with because some parts have been so depressed).

and with the new diagnostic criteria in DSM V, it seems to me that as one increases in co-consciousness, the diagnosis changes. I wonder how they know when the diagnosis changes? I'm a whole lot more co-conscious than I have ever been.
