I was BP1 until I was recently rediagnosed with schizoaffective. So I suppose that means I'm still BP1 with added psychosis.

Officially BP2, but I've suffered a few mixed episodes so, so it's questionable at the moment.

I'm somewhere in between, lol BP 1.5

I am 2. For years I was misdiagnosed as major depression. Depression is what usually sends BP2 people to the doc, so the hypomania is often undisclosed or ignored by providers.

I think I am here too, especially with the type of mania I experience. But I am not the doc LOL

BP 1. Trying to maintain enough control to avoid "w psychotic features" stuck on the back of it, but I'd rather end up with the label and controlled paranoia, than uncontrolled paranoia that I eventually lose a fight with and no label.

For some odd reason, I thought the big majority of people on here were bp2. I am surprised.

I am bp2.
