Yes, my daughter and I both took an MMPI test (560 questions, I think) to diagnose us as Bipolar II. My daughter's psychologist didn't think she was, and her psychiatrist dissagreed with him. I wanted to be sure also with his diagnosis, because he seemed to be so sure of it on the first visit. He wanted her to take the MMPI, and when it was read and printed out, it showed that she is indeed Bipolar II. The same thing was then applied to me, and I have the same diagnosis. It does run in families. I don't blame you for thinking the dianosis is hasty, because I did the same thing. You may want to ask about the test.-L
