I Passed!!

So today was my day to go to the psych MD and see how my medicines are going. Were making a few changes on mine just to lessen anxiety. Out of the 3 major anxiety disorders, I guess Im just lucky because I have them all! YAY! no, not really. What really bothered me was when my Dr and I were talking about my anxiety attacks and he turned to me and said something similar to " its ONLY adrenaline..." Now that bothered me. It made me feel like he doesn't care or understand. It was an extremely insensitive thing to say and I don't think he realizes how much that bothered me and I know that he didn't mean to hurt me but still. Just because he didn't mean it, doesn't mean it doesn't hurt.

But onto good news. Because I have a long family history of bipolar and i live in bipolar land there is an insane risk that I will develop bipolar disorder one day. So about 4 times a year I have to go in and answer what seems to be 30 billion questions and talk about random things ( today we talked about school lunches ) and then, almost magically, he tells me that I don't have a mood disorder. Its always a relief when he says it because the last thing in the world I want is to be bipolar.


But that's a different story for a different time... For now im just extatic that I dont have it !
