Bipolar Disorder...Questions?

well im not bipolar but i do know about it because my boss went through something similar. He is a 47 year old man, he was fine untill his wife stole from him and left him, after that he started going through weird symptoms like being irritable, angry, impatient, and i know this first hand because he took it out on me. well he went to see his doctor and he was diagnosed with being bipolar, his doctor prescribed his celexa and Lamictal...celexa was making his sooooo drowsy that he didnt even want to work, so his doctor switched him to lamictal and it seemed to make better but once it wore off he seemed to be worse. After struggling with several other meds and not finding a good solutiong he consulted with another doctor, and that doctor said he was not bipolar and that his previous doctor had misdiagnosed him. he told my boss that it is natural for someone to go through all these symptoms after what happened with him, and he said that having to work all the time made it worse. well i dont want to make a book here but my advise to you is to seek another doctor for another opinion, to see if you really are bipolar. You might just be extremely afected by what happened to you, some people handle stress and betrayal stronger than others, and some people have a harder time letting something go. regardless good luck :)
