manic depressive, mood disorder, bipolar...... the name just keeps getting shorter and shorter lol.
I like mood disorder the best out of the three. It makes the most sense to me. |

I'm personally a fan of "manic depression"... call me old fashioned.

Manic depression describes it best, IMHO. In fact, it's the ONLY way to describe a mixed episode, as I've learned to my sorrow....."bipolar" doesn't even begin to cover that cluster-F.

Hmmm interesting you're right they're getting shorter. I like to be vague if I'm telling any "normals" anything like, I have a dx... Then they wonder what does "dx" mean? ...
 . They can google it.
