Omg @BethRags! I’m so annoyed I want to scream ! I seriously get so angry when I hear of doctors actually saying things like this. Like do they not understand how to google? Do they not know the difference between Wikipedia WebMD and the psychiatric times?

Bipolar treatment: Are bipolar I and bipolar II treated differently? - Mayo Clinic
Is the mayo clinic not reliable enough? I’m not a doctor but I’m sick of bipolar being misrepresented by old school doctors who never receive follow up training or don’t care to. Where they don’t maintain their duty to take to continuing education. Or they are holding onto their old ideas from college that was 20 years ago! There are thousands of thousands of cited articles about how anti-depressants are just fine for bipolar people.WHEN TAKEN IN CONJUNCTION WITH OTHER MEDS !!
Personally I would be so annoyed I’d print all of this poop out and slap her silly with it but I guess you probably need to maintain a good relationship eh?

I feel exactly the same way that you do. I made a complaint about her to the clinic and my therapist also made a complaint. I so hope they replace her before my next appointment comes up. If I'm still stuck with her I'm going to tell her about this thread. If she doubts me I will ask her for a way to show her this thread. Her information is archaic.
