Hey, I've seen at least five (maybe more?) psychiatrists, over the years, and even 'they don't know.' I was quite creatively high years before I hit a string of broken marriages, bad jobs, bad meds, mistakes .... so trauma has really taken its toll on me, and now some say I may be bipolar II, more recently say post traumatic stress, hence, borderline personality disorder which would account for multiple suicide attempts. What a H-57! I shy away from bipolar though, not even sure why. Maybe because they're like a group, 'ya know, and I have always liked being an individual; don't mean to step on anyone's toes ,.. really. I wish I could say I'm just one thing, but at one time or another, think have had symptoms of many diagnoses. I do have an insightful daughter who is able to stand back, look at me, and see me ... when I can't. I am open to try understand myself better. I need to take good care of myself at this point, and your sharing is good for me. Day at a time. cf
