do some research and make sure that you are getting the type of treatment that fits what you're dealing with. for example... DBT is great therapy for some things, but does pretty much nothing for OCD. and while ERP (a subset of CBT) works fantastically for OCD... it probably won't be very helpful to someone with bipolar...
that said, don't diagnose yourself! you'll probably just freak yourself out. wait for a doctor to make a diagnosis...
i guess... just be educated about things. you don't want to waste time or money on therapies that are ineffective for you
