I was originally diagnoses as being bi-polar, with my manic phases manifesting as anxiety/panic, and mild depression. I was then re-diagnosed as just having panic disorder, with the depression being a biproduct of dealing with the panic.
most antidepressant medications make me unbelievably anxious. i dont really have mood swings, but i will go days where I am incredably anxious and the slightest thing will send me into panic, followed by days where I am completely fine.
im concerned because lately ive been having some of the more typical bipolar symptoms, the irritability, irrational thoughts, etc. i've also been having crying spells and very dark, morbid thoughts.
im wondering if anyone else has been diagnosed with panic and bipolar disorder, and has any insight into this?
i am going to doctor next week for a re-evaluation.
