I had my first psychiatrist appointment today after over a year of therapy as my mental health had worsened in the last 6 months. I was convinced I had bp2 and 2 different therapists believed this as well. The psych today suspects bp2 but did not diagnose. He focused more on my ptsd &amp; anxiety and prescribed me Xanax to take as needed. Said we need more time to see about bipolar spectrum, which I appreciate, I don’t want to just be diagnosed willy nilly by someone who just met me. Anyway, I’ve never been on any medication besides adderall as a teenager. No idea what Xanax is like or what the risks or side effects are...thoughts?
