That's how it goes, my sweet, when you're up you want it to be real, and when you're down, well then of course it's OK to call it an illness.
I keep holding out hope that one day, one shiny vibrant glorious hyper-flirtatious day, I'll discover that it really is my Philosophy holding me up there after all. Could happen.

> Wouldn't help me to die
> You'll have to ask someone else said he.Well, dreamer. I would commiserate with how unreasonable and uncooperative pdocs can be, except that I'm damn glad he feels that way. The world without dreamer would be a poorer place, and I would miss you dreadfully.
As far as diagnosis goes, after years of searching for answers to what was wrong with me, or why I did the things I did, I came to what was to me an amazing conclusion. The diagnostic system is woefully inadequate to explain most of us. People on the bipolar spectrum can have as many faces as there are people on the bipolar spectrum. If you throw in co-morbidity (and there usually is comordity), diagnosis becomes a very poor tool indeed. Only good for deciding whether to use mood stabilizers or antidepressants or antipsychotics.
A pinch of this diagnosis, a dab of that, and still we humans can't be pigeonholed. You are Dreamer, and you happen to have mood cycles and respond well to mood stabilizers.
Keep holding on, Dreamer. And keep in touch. (Will you have internet access at home anytime soon?)

Dinah's right, sweetie, Dx doesn't mean much. I've learned that from being here, my Dx is bipolar but I have features of ADD and OCD as well. It's not so clear cut. Just helps the docs pick meds. Your brain wiring is unique in so many lovely ways, playful, creative, flirty, etc. You're a gem.
