Follow-Up: I feel for you, dear heart. I was diagnosed with Bipolarity Disorder at a young age, but was given no medication for it, and I still dont know why. Im starting to think it was a misdiagnosis, because its been almost 10 years since. Im usually not one to make generalizations, but doctors dont know what the hell they are doing. (most of them, anyway) If they dont know whats wrong with you, they are quick to make assumptions. Although I dont know much about Schitzophrenia and Narcolepsy, I can say that just because a doctor says you have it, doesnt mean its true. I would go to another doctor and get a second opinion. (and a third, fourth, etc.) Your insurance should cover it. (If you dont have it, apply for it) There has to be someone out there willing to take your case, so dont give up hope. Just stick by the people who support and nurture you, and cling onto them if youre feeling depressed. If you need someone to talk to, my email address is right there, so dont be shy. =) Good luck! -A.K.
