Some diagnostic you got.
It took more than one hour concentrated only in my answers, to my previous shrink to give me a bipolar diagnosis.

I lied to him. I didn't want to admit I had an addiction problem.
I've been depressed for years. Self medicating.
Of course, I've been manic. Three of four days of partying non stop can do that to you.

I was honest to my actual shrinkette. And she explained, in detail, that nothing you do under the influence, counts for a diagnostic.

She also "downgraded" me from a 1 to a 2. She couldn't "see" the 1 in my eyes.
But still bipolar. Years of abuse do that too.

I have MDD, not bipolar. Since I don't do anything, not even a night cap, I haven't been manic.
I'm a hyper person by nature. Sorry. Not hypowhatever.
Or I'm depressed. Last one took three years off my life.

I'd rather be VERY manic than depressed.

Don't trust that ignorant person.
If you feel compelled to get a serious diagnostic, go to a serious professional.
Ideally more than one. They all think differently.
Psych "doctors" are more quakery than anything else.
That's why they don't get respect from the other "doctors".

As you can see, I don't trust doctors at all. I sleep with one every night I'm home.

Good luck. Cheers.
