Dear FB,
I really agree with Scott that the DX is not that important. It may help in choosing meds but a DX is really just a description of symptoms and they change. I don't know that one is easier or harder to treat than the other, BP or MDD I mean. Sounds like your doc said being depressed makes your brain matter die? I have never heard that but I am going to google it.
Hang in there. Getting on the right meds is the important thing. And I wouldn't worry too much about the dex, though I know you do. It seems to me a good thing if it helps even though I know stimulants in general are a double edged sword since you kind of crash off them.
Be well. This isn't a death sentence and remember, you are the same person you were yesterday.
