Major life stress events....the kind that would send anyone into a state of confusion. People say circumstancial issues mean you don't have bipolar, but this is not true for me. I have issues within a month of the stressful event. If this happens once it's called brief psychotic disorder but if it happens more than once, you get labeled with one of these illnesses which seems unfair as I really believe even the most sane of people would have my issues had they went through the things I have.

Do you feel your doctor fully listens to you and asks the right questions?
