I was diagnosed with Bipolar type 2 in March last year. But this past year things have changed so much and gotten more extreme that I felt the need to have another assessment. My previous psychiatrist brushed off all of my concerns and hardly gave me any opportunity to speak so I asked to see somebody else for another assessment.

I spoke to a new psychiatrist today and it was really comprehensive, we just discussed absolutely everything right from the top. She was super friendly and listened to my concerns. She's running it past her team today in fact, to see what support they can offer me. Just feel good about this much needed piece of progress and wanted to share it!
