That’s a pretty serious misdiagnosis. You should have that doctor checked out.

I see money in your future, from a lawsuit that's some bullshit and get a second opinion those are two completely different diagnosis'

I know the feel as a kid I was told I have ADHD,but recently I found out I actually have bipolar and anxiety

I know that sucks but the "symptoms" of a lot of mental disorders coincide. I was just diagnosed w BiPolar 1 a few months ago and I feel way better after switching from antidepressants to mood stabalizers. You will feel better

Don’t they usually follow up to make sure you’re getting the right dose, or switch your med altogether?

This is why good communication between health care and patient is crucial. Good luck on your new (hopefully) meds.

Ive have had the same experience and now finally found a amazing dr and found the perfect medication that works

Don't feel bad. Ive been on different depression meds for 16 years and NOTHING has worked. 4 days ago, the dr decided to diagnose bipolar 2 and try treatment for that instead.

Bipolar is a serious disorder and nobody can understand how serious unless the are bi-polar themselves. I have bi-polar 2, highs are high, lows are rock bottom. If you need help, seek it. Having mental issues is a flaw in chemistry not character. I hope the meds will work better!

I got misdiagnosed with ADD when I was younger because I wasn’t listening and was getting ratty and couldn’t follow instructions. Turns out I’m actually epileptic and was having absence seizures so the instructions weren’t actually getting through..
