In reply to Social Anxiety or BiPolar?, posted by becksA on September 13, 2004, at 15:56:48
Hi:
In my knowledge, when any of meds. does NOT offer any relief, like the case of yours, some of pdocs. put Lithium and other mood-stabilizers to see if there is some of Bipolar trace. Because, Anxiety is a BIG part of Bipolarity in some of Bpers. All of Bpers are NOT same symptoms, ... some have more 'high/mania,' while other are mostly depression that is often mistaken 'unipolar.'In regard to 'blood-work,' ... Lithium needs. Before and after Lithium regimen is required due to whether you are safe to take the Lithium. In my case, I did at the beginning, ... maybe two months' interval and gradually once six months, even just once a year. Even this, bloodwork also all depends on person to person, ... probably also the pdoc.'s concern over this.
