So I went to the psych eval today....

And got my diagnosis as it were.  I am a: Neuroleptic Parasomniac with Bipolar. Neuroleptic: A term that refers to the effects of antipsychotic drugs on a patient, especially on his or her cognition and behavior. Neuroleptic drugs may produce a state of apathy, lack of initiative and limited range of emotion. In psychotic patients, neuroleptic drugs cause a reduction in confusion and agitation and tend to normalize psychomotor activity.  parasomnia /para·som·nia/ (-som´ne-ah) a category of sleep disorders in which abnormal events occur during sleep, such as sleepwalking or talking; due to inappropriately timed activation of physiological systems. bi·po·lar (b-plr)adj.1. Having two poles; used especially of nerve cells in which the branches project from two usually opposite points.2. Of or relating to both ends or poles of a bacterial or other cell.3. Of or relating to a major mood disorder that is characterized by episodes of mania and depression. Isn't this interesting to know?  I knew about the neuroleptic part but I didn't know the definition until today.  I have been neuroleptic for a year now.  I also knew I was a parasomniac but I didn't know what the term was until today.  Interesting, huh?  I thought so.  Have a good day.
