Dunno. Not sure where it will go. Prolly one of those multiday EEGs. Maybe an fmri. I already have an official dx of a tonic-clonic szr disorder from 99. But I do strongly believe when I cycle, I am having generalized awake szrs.
Do not want to speak for you, but I will say it again: i am super weird.
That said, despite coming down from this recent mania and psychosis, my depression is crushing me. I literally considered giving up today. I just do not know how many brutal depressions I have left in me.

I am also a member of the super weird club. You're not alone.
It sounds like your doc knows about your condition. Hopefully the med choices keep that in mind. I know you said you have an appointment soon. I wish you the best with it.
I am so sorry about the depression. I know those phases are indescribably rough. There's nothing that says it has to be lengthy. Maybe this one will be a short blip. Be sure to keep the list of your reasons to hold on close by. We're here for you as well.
