Unless its just because my mental health issues were caught when I was 12 and I was treated at an early age. But Idk. I don't feel the mania or big mood swings. My sleep seems to be more situational. I've been on the same AP since 2007 without an issue and I'm not having any mood swings getting off my lamictal.

I swear I just have ASD, bad anxiety, and depression and some other stuff I've talked a lot about on here. My mom blames a lot of my stuff on "afflulence" and how I grew up.

Idk. I can never get a clear answer from any doctors if I'm bipolar because of the lack of symptoms I have but the fact I'm on bipolar meds.

Bipolar meds can be used off label for a myriad of symptoms. I take it a pdoc originally diagnosed you.

I definitely feel the mood swings. I reckon most bipolar people do. That’s why we seek treatment.

Can you get a second opinion?

My daughter feels she has ASD, ADHD, depression and anxiety. But I've seen her question her reality and hypomanic. Plus depression medicine doesn't work on her. It just presents different because of the ASD, ADHD . So talk to your Dr. Slowly come off meds don't be adverse to trying new medication .
