I see both a psychiatrist and thearapist. My doctor says I am not bipolar because I do not have manic episodes. My therapists asks about my moods but I don't think she is concerned about them because I can hold down a job and am stable. I was originally diagnosed with bipolar but then that got taken off my charts because my mood swings stopped visibly happening. That was when I was a teenager anyways, and teenagers are moody in general. There was a brief time when a treatment place thought I had BPD, but after I got on seasonale birth control and only got my period 4 times a year, it was evident that
I had bad PMDD and not BPD. Currently, I'm diagnosed with PMDD, GAD, SAD and social anxiety disorder.
I have never heard of rapid cycling bipolar. It sounds interesting though.
I don't think anyone is looking into giving me any more diagnosis, since I am not having any problems.
I see my doctor in a couple of weeks, and I think I'll talk to him about this.
Thanks everyone.
