Re: +1 Anon currently testing for a diagnosis

Is being misdiagnosed as bipolar very common for autistic people? I'm bipolar supposedly but it's never felt right. >_> I have anger issues (like, I get irrationally angry over stupid things-- I have an intense hatred of Game of Thrones for example and I don't know why but it just makes me really angry!) and when I get really excited about rp or reading or writing something I run around the house bouncing and thinking about the scenario/pretending in my head and I can't help it. I was on anti-psychotics for bipolar disorder but they just really sucked out all my personality and my creativity and made me really kind of depressed, so I don't know.

I'm just really curious because like I said, I can see bipolar aspects in myself but there's parts that don't fit. My moods are -too- irrational for example, like I don't have long periods of depressions and long periods of mania, I go back and forth in the same day, sometimes within hours.

Yeah, it actually is very common, especially with women. That sounds a lot like me... I tend to get really obsessed with things, but when I have mood swings, I can be crying my eyes out and then something simple can cheer me up, or if the problem is worked out, I'm suddenly just fine. It's caused a lot of stress. I get PISSED at TV shows especially when something suddenly changes or I feel like it's making me insecure about myself for some reason (Someone compared me to Sam from Supernatural, and when I tried to correct them but they wouldn't hear me out, I slammed my laptop shut and just walked out on them. ...not the best of my reactions.)

Everyone is different, but my doctor told me that a lot of the people he sees were misdiagnosed as bipolar. Right now I'm on anti-anxiety medicine, and that along with learning to recognize that I may not like things, but that I don't have to act on it, has helped me deal a lot. I would try to find someone and get a second opinion if you can, especially if you can find a doctor that specializes in Aspergers. They will know the difference.
