I was the one who said "I have bipolar don't I?" so it was just confirmation of what I already knew and had slowly come to terms with over a few months. My family history made it easier to see and by the time I was diagnosed it was really obvious (although it took about 3 more months to get into a new pdoc for diagnosis since the one I had at the time was clueless). When I saw the 2nd pdoc, who is a world-renowed bipolar specialist who was in charge of a clinical trial I did and therefore hard to not believe what he said, it was so obvious so quickly as he did his interview that I couldn't believe it had taken so long. Overall it was just relief.
