Christina, that sounds terrible. Seriously, why, why don't pdocs understand? Maybe they're simply afraid of losing many of their patients.
I used to write a lot of short stories in high school all the time. I really wanted to major in English instead of Microbiology. I let my father push me into the microbiology major. I was smart, it was OK, but I really had wanted to study English, perhaps teach as an adjunct later. Now the meds have zapped my creativity in the area of writing short stories and poetry.

Although the long writing can be a sign of hypomania too. Once I had it so bad, it was the automatic writing thing, hours & hours nonstop, and I couldn't quit. But this I can stop.
