Well it's been a long slog getting to this point. I thought I was finally on the road to recovery, but the swirling vortex of psycho-babble is pulling me down - again! As my grandson would say, "Yikes!!!"

To bring you all up to date, my history goes something like this: I didn't have that many symptoms as a kid but it became problematic when I started my family during my 20s, especially with the second pregnancy. My doctor at the time kept saying that nothing was wrong, and none of my doctors over the next 26 years bothered to do anything except treat the symptoms I was experiencing. If I only knew then what I know now, guess I wouldn't be in this mess!

Anyway the latest thing has been a run-in with a psychiatrist my disability insurance made me go to. I was suspicious the minute I discovered she worked out of a law office... and my suspicions were confirmed: she diagnosed me as bipolar after a 90 minute interview. Is that even possible? I'm not sure what this is going to mean, but my GP will probably have to have me assessed by the psychiatrist that works at his clinic. What a waste of time and money.

I kind of wish I was bipolar - I could use some mania! So far all I've had is plain ol' depression.
