[QUOTE="GoingNorth, post: 603265, member: 1963"] Speaking as a person who's bipolar manifested in her teens, you are wrong. We do NOT thrive on argument. Argument stresses us out and jacks up our anxiety. I'm no expert beyond living in my skin for nearly forty years. I've researched my disorder extensively. With a bi-polar person you have to wait until the rage is over and then talk it through. When a bipolar person rages it is due to "stuck thinking" and anxiety. Raging most often occurs during mania. You need to have your daughter evaluated by either a neuropsychiatrist, or by a multi-disciplinary team. Both evaluations involve at least 6 hours of testing and interviews. A regular psychiatrist prescribes medications. Ideally this should be done on the basis of the results of the evaluations. [/QUOTE]
