How Do You Know If We Have Bipolar Disorder Or Dysthymic Depressions ?
Hi Dr. "AAA".....No pun intendeded I'm sure, however this WEB site is giving me "grief" trying to log on,.... anyway, I digress....My question to you is how do you know if you have "dysthymic Depression". Bi-Bolar depression, mixed disorder bipolar, GAD, all the above, none of the above????.....I of course don't expect you to diagnose me in one question, but if you didn't keep your sense of humor you's wind up in the proverbial "rubber room", you know??? Any thoughts?........D.
