Thanks so much. I hope so too. If I can't my hope is to catch it sooner before I go to the depths I went to before. I had no idea I could behave like I did. I blacked out for a lot of it and my husband took the brunt of my wrath. Very scary stuff.
My pdoc told me he isn't 100% sure I have a mood disorder at my last appointment. He said it is possible I have something rare called delusional disorder, but he isn't sure and he's sticking with bipolar I for now. My hope is whatever I have is controllable with the right meds and CBT.
