I'm going home to visit in 2 weeks & managed to get an appointment with my old pdoc so I'll see what he thinks too. My new pdoc is very old school & runs the inpatient ward in the public hospital so I'm sure he's used to dealing with patients who are quite severerly ill. He believes it's anxiety, he's not sure that I have bipolar. First pdoc was pretty adamant about bipolar.
My one fear is this is early psychosis & it's currently at a level able to be treated & prevent actually psychosis which is obviously one of the most frightening things I can imagine, or perhaps it is severe anxiety.
