It's hard for me to say at this point. As of yesterday I got an 'official' diagnosis of Bipolar II Disorder. I have been seeing this psychiatrist since about the middle of February and after a few sessions w/ him he wanted me to be tested, so I went along with it and sat through almost 2 hours of psychological testing. When I first started seeing him he said it sounded more like ADHD issues w/ depression mixed in (if that makes any sense). Anyway, I guess after getting to know me a bit more he felt the need for additional testing. Initially he had me on Adderall (due to my inability to concentrate and focus for any length of time), along with Lexapro and Xanax. He then switched me to Adderal., Wellbutrin and Xanax. Now he has me on Forfivo, Xanax and a trial of a new drug called Vraylar. I'm tired of feeling so down and irritable. One day I would just like to feel like nothing is wrong and everything is gonna be a-ok.
