So someone recently brought up I might be BP2. When my disorder started 2 years ago I was only depressed severely with insomnia and racing thoughts and some agitation (bitting all the skin off my fingers causing them to bleed)
Before developing depression I had these symptoms..
just looking at bipolar 2 though, it's like I've got most of these
- narcissism
- no need to sleep
- increased talkativeness (except when I'm in a major depression)
- distractability (can never do work at home, only at the library)
- psychomotor agitation (severe cases, the motions may become harmful to the individual, such as ripping, tearing or chewing at the skin around one's fingernails until bleeding which I do regularly)
So is it possible I'm BP2? I've never been psychotic I'm certain. I have mood swings on Nardil it works sometimes and other times I swing hard. Maybe lithium would fix it. I can't use lamictal.
