A member asked:
Is manic depression type 1 or type 2? i don't really know that much about it even though that's what the doc diagnosed me with.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Please ensure that: you are working with a psychiatrist since you have bipolar disorder (Manic Depression). Although terminology is changing with DSM V- bottom line is that are Bipolar I and II Disorders. It is imperative that your physician provide you with education about your condition. Once you know your accurate diagnosis - start reading about it. Knowledge is power. Be Well.
