Yes, about the amount I was drinking. Only once though. have a very trusting relationship with my T but didn't want to deal with what I knew he would say as I didn't want to slow down my drinking - hypomania.

Lots of things from before I had any idea I was bipolar......once I had an argument with my sister and slapped her face. I have found it very hard to live with that even 20 years later.

No, my immune system is very strong thankfully. I do eat well. I haven't even had a cold for over 2 years.

I haven't stopped my AD in many years, since I had to stop to go on an MAOI, so I really don't know. When I made that change I was a complete wreck but I was depressed and my prior AD wasn't working at a dose I could tolerate even before stopping so I just got worse from a bad place.

Yes, I get really agitated, anxious, irritable. This is why I try to shop before the holiday rush, and I buy things online to avoid the stores and crowds.
Were you misdiagnosed before being diagnosed with Bipolar? |
