I'm glad that you doctor is being careful in diagnosing you. Bipolar is a serious & chronic diagnosis. And although onset could be as early as late teens, it's hard to tell that's what was going on until later on in your life, usually.

Plus, you may not have it and you might be damaged by a diagnosis of it. You and your family might make a lot of life decisions based on an illness you don't even have.

I hope that you don't have it, but keep being honest with yourself and your doctors, so that whatever is going on can be treated.

Thanks for letting us know what happened. Good luck.
