I'm very high functioning but that's because I am very young and usually hypo manic.

I found out about my bipolar a year ago and though I recently found out I have seen the progression of it from my early adulthood to now.

I am also more hypo manic then manic more than I'm depressed. This makes me seem "perfectly fine" to most of the people around me so this doesn't always affect my work and school. My therapist doesn't think I'm bipolar even though my doctor beloved I am and that I'm just high functioning.

When I get depressed I am bed ridden outside of school and work and though I miss a lot of school the consequences for work are greater so I just go to work and be depressed. I am quite good at hiding my depression and my mania comes off as me being in a good mood to most. I've seen the repercussions of both moods and I know that it's bipolar.

You know your self more than anyone but trust what your doctor has to say. Be open and honest with him so he can help you.
