I wasn’t diagnosed until age 43 but looking back in therapy I was showing signs at age 6

I thought everyone had a racing mind and mood swings. What did I know?

Getting the diagnosis isn’t paramount it’s treating the symptoms. Many Pdoc take months to years to hand out the label which I think is good , meanwhile your getting treated anyway.

I really believe Therapy is helpful for anyone struggling with a mental illness of any kind. And in your case I would say you need a separate Therapist and also marriage counselor.

Bipolar often makes life difficult but everyone mental illness or not struggles with life for one problem or another.

I hope you find answers to your questioned.

Also make sure you have a physical with full lab work , thyroid and hormones can mimic Bipolar.
