Bipolar Type I here.
I got 4 diagnoses before I would accept this disorder in October
2006.
My psychiatrist comforted me with this....
"Sherry...quite possibly this is the reason you have relapsed with one substance or another for 15 years...alcohol to calm down...amphetamines to pull yourslef up...possibly not being
diagnosed correctly has contributed to your struggle in your
efforts to stay sober"....
I fell into her arms and knew I heard truth....
I believe that now that I am stabilized....and monitored bi-monthly now...
That I can stay clean and sober...with God's help for the rest
of my life..one day at a time!
My best to YOU!!!
Love,
:
Sherry
