im confused ive been diagnosed with bipolar type II. but also ocd, generalized anxiety disorder, and i look at borderline personality and it describes me to a tee. lately ive been wondering if i have add/adhd... one of my biggest complaints ive had is i cant concentrate on anything i want to. but that can be symptoms of lots of things.. my doc had me on lithium and xanax and prozac but some days i cant seem to contrentrate still. i have lost my insurance and havent seem him for a while. so i been experimenting with vyvanse and it helps me focus i feel good but i mean it does that to normal ppl.. anyways i saw him at work and we got to talking and he said he would see me for 50 bucks instead of 100 so he can write prescriptions and help me figure out whats wrong.

sorry im just rambling

Borderline is often misdiagnosed as bipolar to start with. If borderline sums up your symptoms than it is more likely you have that. Good news though, that is not a lifelong sentence, you can be practically cured with good therapy. Overmedication is going to be more of a hindrance than a help, find a good therapist.
