I actually was evaluated as a teen, I don't think I'd be able to again. My therapist isn't really open to a different diagnosis (tried bringing up embrace autism and he didn't want to hear about it), so I doubt bipolar or cyclothemic would be more likely. I actually was on lithium for a while, unfortunately I don't remember it doing anything for me. I don't know if that's because it didn't or if I was just too depressed to remember things clearly.
I just can't put my family through knowing how bad it gets, to be honest.
Idk why my comment got removed but what I was getting at was that if your therapist isn't helpful with the major things that contribute to mental health then no additional context is necessary, you need to drop that therapist.

Thank you :cuddle:
Eggnoggy, you need a new therapist!
I really do. If nothing else, he isn't helpful with autism/trans stuff.
Yeah I’ve seen you post about him before and you really need a better therapist

She's talking about stuff I've said in the trans mega. The most obvious thing to point to is he misgenders me, despite knowing I'm trans.
