My T wasn't really an expert in Bipolar anyway. She was more psychoanalytical about my childhood, which didn't jive with me since it's not helping me develop any skills or "great insight" that is of any help. Hopefully I'm making the right decision.

I think its ok-you did notify your t and sounds like you have a plan with pdoc.
I will just say i have done therapy off/on for almost 18yrs. I have times whn i stop/do well. Then i use this site and some support groups to keep in control,whn i start feeling out of control/stressed,etc i usually get new t/sometimes back with same ine. Sometimes i want change therapist because i have new ossue to handle,so want t with different experience. I now foigle my therapist-read their training,where worked soecialties,customer comments..tgen i xall. I tell them want talk 10minutes on phone about bipolar,style,etc-because i can usually tell-after 18yrs-if i think we will jive.
