Hi. I am totally confused. I have many diagnosis so I thought I knew what most are. I have been taking meds hor BPD, Panick Disorder, PTSD, and severe Depression. The meds aren't working. My therapist now says she believes I have Bi-Polar#2. I have heard of Bi-Polar but never #2. Has anyone else heard of this? She said something about never getting manic. That manic for me is a normal mood then I go into a severe depression that last for a few weeks, which I have been in for a week now. I'm wondering if anyone else has this diagnosis. I see a psych on the 25th. My therapist said something about a med called lithium which I have never heard about. I'd appreciate any info out there. Thanks Sue
