I went to my pdoc today and he said I may not be bipolar 1 but he thinks I am bipolar 2 or have major depression but he is leaning towards bipolar 2. I hate the whole lable thing. I just want my symptoms treated and to feel better. I am still having problems sleeping and having anxiety. The 3mg of Risperdal that I take at night is not helping me sleep anymore...I don't even feel it. So, now I am taking Seroquel again. I don't know how this is going to work because it makes me hung over the next day. I have tried the Seroquel before but he says I should try it again. He told me after 2-3 weeks I won't feel so hung over. He also told me to take it around 6-7pm. If I take it that early I will be in bed by 8-9pm. I feel like I can't win. I either can't sleep or I have to feel drugged up.
I hope you all are hanging in there and doing well.

tina i can so relate to your plight. my pdoc has thrown 3 different dx's out there and, if you ask me, they all say the same thing. but i guess that's why i don't earn the big bucks huh?
Tina,
I'm with you on all the labels, I try not to get too caught up in them, as long as they are trating me for the symptoms that are bothering me, to some extent I don't care what they call it.
