I mean, I haven't gotten the official diagnosis yet, even though my T (s) and my pdoc think I probably do. Just something I've been thinking about.

I don't see why it would be wrong. We're not diagnosis snobs here. Anyone can post it doesn't matter. Just having supportive people is the goal, no matter what.

I'm not diagnosed with anything yet either. (Which I have said in many of my posts so far!)

I've: gone to my GP and started on sertraline. went to talk to a psychologist. Got told to ask for a referral to a psychiatrist for diagnosis. (the psychologist brought up bipolar on his own, even though I'd been trying to get up the guts to mention it myself).

I go back to the GP tomorrow afternoon, and to see the psychologist on the 12th. But no idea when the psychiatrist appointment will be made - need to talk about that tomorrow.

Thanks, I guess I just needed a little reassurance
