The doctor was looking at Bipolar before the mania. I think it confirmed his opinions. easy child has an aunt with Bipolar and a cousin that has schizophrenia... and a lot of relatives that self medicate.
easy child understands that she will most likely take medicine for the rest of her life. I compared it to me taking my thyroid medicine or her grandpa taking blood pressure medicine. She's very accepting about it.
And I'm very thankful that I won't have to go through anything alone. Thanks
