My first mental health diagnosis was depression. In 2012 I was diagnosed with bipolar NOS and it stayed that way for a couple of years, until a hospitalization got me labeled bipolar 1. I have since been diagnosed with type 1 four times by different providers, all of whom took a detailed history instead of relying on my previous providers. So I guess I should start believing it, right?
