Hi,
Welcome!

I wonder what you mean by calling your diagnosis "level one."

That is a little confusing to me.

Usually we say Bipolar 1 or Bipolar 2.

Bipolar 2 is more severe usually but the doctors have good meds for it.
Bipolar 1 is harder to treat (in my mind) but causes less disruption in people's lives.

There are overlaps between 1 and 2 of course. Some people move back and forth between them depending on the psychiatrist.

I'm not sure which one I am in fact. When I was diagnosed in the old days ( ) pdocs did not make these kinds of distinctions.
