Hi MM
I wouldn't get to hung up about the label or "diagnosis". Some pdocs will put a bipolar label on a patient just so insurance will cover them. Finding the right medicine is what is important. AND just because you respond to a mood stabilizer, doesn't necessarily mean you are BP or not BP. It means you are responding well to that medication. Each person is different, and each person needs a certain type of medication(s) to give them relief from their pain.
I hope you find the right treatment regime for you. Whatever your particular "diagnosis" may be.BTW, I not convinced I am BP II but that is the stamp on me! God only knows I guess!
All the best
Chloe
