[QUOTE="klmno, post: 113635, member: 3699"] Ok, I've been trying to digest this- I thought cycling between mania and depression WAS bipolar. Now, I see that's not necessarily the case. Either way, cycling can be treated with medications. If the underlying problem is depression, they might need an AD as well. If it's not true bipolar, it might not last a lifetime. How am I doing? Re. the inpatient evaluation- it's out of the question now, unless something changes. This is why judge got GAL on board- to help with this. I had been told my insurance company would pay for it but charges needed to be reduced in order for them to take him in. Gal was working on getting charges reduced then I found out insurance company wouldn't pay. I asked GAL if county would pay, she got social services involved- I thought to get county to pay, then find out she (GAL) was having them look into Residential Treatment Center (RTC). psychiatrist and I thought that was a little premature and I felt like nailing down the diagnosis would lead to the best treatment. Anyway, social services looking into this left door open in other ways and my bro filed for custody. It was a nightmare. Now, bro is out of picture, as is social services, and I have sworn to GAL that I don't want anymore help from this county. [/QUOTE]
