Chris I sometimes wonder if the doctors really know what they are talking about the way they change from one diagnosis to another. Isnt it possible to suffer from OCD and the Bipolar disorder? Lawrence "alien" <N…@NONE.com> wrote in message

Response:
ive been diagnosed with Bipolar Affective Disorder I, and my previous diagnosis of OCD has been thrown out the window. hmm. the doctors seem to think that my OCD symptoms are from the depressive phase of the manic depression. Oh well. I still think i have OCD no matter what they say =/ Take care all chris.
