I finally got a dx out of my psychiatrist and now I don't know what to think of it. Is this NOS business bipolar lite?

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
It means there's too much going on to nail it down to one area. I wouldn't call it BPLite though it could be. It can be pretty bad, too.
Me too...I think it just means ,we are all over the map...kinda mixed episodes...tommy is correct in saying it can get pretty bad.So keep in close contact with your Pdoc,and keep at your meds.
Good luck

Don't take it lightly, grrl. As others have said, this can get serious. Perhaps once you've worked with your doc a bit longer, he/she will be able to help clear the confusion by nailing exactly what it is you deal with disorder wise. Keep us updated!
