I’m diagnosed with bipolar 2. 
My psychiatrist diagnosed me after two 1h appointments. Either he’s really good or idk. 

I don’t get the 4+ day hypomanic or the months of depression. I get both these moods within a day, like a rollercoaster. 

I also work a customer service job, being around people makes me hyper and happy so maybe that could mask my depression? 

If I isn’t have work or a school life I probably would be in my bed forever.  

I was originally diagnosed with depression. Then I got put on Prozac and it gave me hypomanic effects. I ended up in the hospital and then rushed into a psychiatrist appointment. 

A lot of the bipolar symptoms do resonate with me, it’s just the fact that I’ve never had 4+ days of hypomania. I’m also going to be 18 soon and apparently bipolar gets more severe with age? 

I really wanted a diagnosis. And now that I have it I’m in denial.
