I haven't that particular disorder, instead I've been blessed with a clinical depression.

They put me on Wellbutrin, but they haven't gave me a mood stabilizer yet. I really don't think I need one though, since I am only type 2, so I don't get full blown mania.

What do you act like when you are in mania? As for seeing things, they should give you anti-psychotics meds.

If you just feel happy all the time then you are type 2. Type 1 would be like you go on shopping sprees, think you are here for a mission, that kind of stuff. When the diagnosed me they didn't know if I was type 1 or 2, he said I was in between, but I think I am 2.

That is how I feel now, since I am on meds. I will be depressed and then I will get really happy. It is weird, lol.

Yeah, I'm bipolar too. Man its annoying, its gotten to the point where I stopped doing schoolwork in both states. In the depression stage I have no motivation, in the manic stage it feels alright not to do it.
