Hi everyone,
first time on this section of the site, I think I may have BP.
I was first diagnosed with depression when I was about
13, I have been on numerous anti-depressants and seen many health professionals, but nothing seems to help with my erratic mood swings.
I was diagnosed about
4 years ago with borderline personality disorder, but I feel it's more than that.
My mum also has depression, but I believe hers is more than just depression, but she hasn't seen anyone about
it in years.
I can be very happy for a couple hours to a week, often quite hyperactive, but then I can get very depressed to the stage where I'm planning how to end my life, which could last from days to a week.
I have spoken to someone about
it, but because I'm recovering from anorexia and I was put on anti-depressants 6 weeks ago, they don't want to mess around with my meds at mo.
Does this sound like BP? Wouldn't it make sense for them to sort my meds out before I do end up doing something?
Hope to hear from some of you with some advice for me
