Thanks Cherie for these links! Very Informative

I like the idea of emotional lability as a means to explain a quick and sudden burst of anger over the idea that one is bi-polar---even if such a dx runs in the family. Also, I think in the States, so many dr's are a bit quick to jump on the Bi-polar bandwagon based on anger alone.

I'd like to think that in this day and age, one would could through a period of consultation before an official dx was handed out---even with those tests. As Cherie stated the wrong meds can wreak havoc with an individual....
