So last week my t told me she didn't think I had bipolar and it had me confused and weirded out all week. Today I saw my pdoc and told him that and he said m

"You have bipolar. Big time. It's your therapist who is confused about your diagnosis."

I found this hilarious. Way to be blunt doc!

I think he is probably very funny in his personal life. He's helped me more than any pdoc I've had. and I think he's proud of me for getting a job.

My pdoc and T used to disagree strongly about my diagnosis. My pdoc refused to even talk to my T. Now I have a new pdoc both he and my T are in regular contact and confirm I have Bipolar 1 with psychotic features.

It was very stressful for me when they disagreed. Which one do you trust the most?

I think I trust my pdoc the most. He's not the first to diagnose me with bipolar. The third dr actually. My t hasn't seen the episodes of my past that were awful. She's mostly seen depression.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
