I was treated off and on for depression most all of my life. On off AD’s numerous times.
My life imploded at 43 and I wound up IP, got me set up with a Pdoc and T before discharge.
4-5 sessions of T and he says.. your history screams of Bipolar. I thought about it for 30 seconds and finally everything made perfect sense. I have never doubted it. I guess I’m lucky that way.
Meh... I thought everyone had a racing mind , seldom slept more than a couple hours or none at all , worked 2 if not 3 jobs at a time, let my daughter at age 6 pick out what color new car I was going to buy , then turn around and do it again when she was 8 .... I didn’t have the internet at my finger tips like now. So to me that was “ normal”
