No not yet really here on the misdiagnosis thing. We started with depression that ended up being bipoar which explain the oppressive mood swings and visuals, then ultimately we came out.

DID can mimic ultra-rapid cycles in BD or BPD because of all the switching between moody others... which is common with DID.

In our case, the meds work. The stabilizer (Lamictal) flat lined us in depression, so we added Prozac to bring us up to baseline which helped us to feel "normal".

The moods of the other's still happen because drugs are not going to affect normal moods as far as I can tell. If a depressed other presents, that other is going to be depressed no matter what because you can't chemically change a depressing p.o.v., IMHO. I charted my moods and saw a wave pattern, so that helped.

If you just started taking bipolar meds, it's going to take it awhile for them to start working, and then even longer to dial them in to doses that will work for you because too much is too much, even though some pdocs philosophy is to bury a person in pills to beat it in one felled swoop, smh.

Hang in there and be proactive in your recovery treatment with your treatment team, and I hope that you get to feeling better!
