okay. so. I was "diagnosed" with bipolar disorder, and given many medications that only increased my problems. I was bored one day, and was looking up the different types of depressions online, and came across psychotic depression, something I have never heard of before, but it made me stop in my tracks. I tried to explain it to my mother, and told her about it, but she only said "Stop self-diagnosing yourself". The thing is, I DON'T self diagnose, and never have before, this thing really was me, but for some reason, she won't accept it. She accepted it when I was depressed, and even diagnosed with bipolar depression, but she can't seem to wrap her brain around the concept of this. I know i need help, but, obviously, i'm on her insurance, and can't really do much on my own, I need her help. What can i do to .... convince her, i guess, that i do need extended help and treatment to get over this?
i'm sorry to post this more than once, but most of my q's get answered like... right away
