The DX is in, I saw my new dr today

and she feels I am bipolar I. I am starting seroquel tonight and she is going to begin weaning me off of the lexapro, klonopin & ambien as well. I have not yet come to terms w/ this dx although I know it is not the end of the world. She also said I meet many of the criteria for borderline personality disorder but that it all stems from the bipolar.
I really liked this lady today, felt very comfortable with her. I see her again on monday. My words have run out so I guess this is the end of my post.

Danielle,
Give yourself time to adjust to the dx; folks with any kind of chronic disease/disorder usually go through some kind of denial & adjustment period, why should you be any different?
Danielle,
First I want to tell you, though I wouldn't wish bp on anyone, I'm glad you know what's going on.
I'm thrilled that you like your pdoc that can make all the difference in the world.
Give yourself time to adjust like Marci said.
Love,
