How To Rule Out Bipolar Disorder?

yes I have a doctor that has diagnosed me with bipolar 1. My family disagrees with this diagnoses and I have a cousin that is mad with me and she is a nurse and she court ordered me in to the hospital she works at. She got fired for breaking the hipaa law going into my information through the computer to bmu. she had been there 15 years. she is the one that called the hospital and told them I was manic and bipolar. I looked up all symptoms and I do not have the symptoms of bipolar. I went to er with a reaction to lithium and the doctor there told me not to take it and to do not let a doctor put me on crazy medication because I am not crazy. What do I do. My family has signed a piece of paper stating I do not have the symptoms of bipolar

Dear,
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. As you had already went through the symptoms, I do not have to repeat those symptoms here again. You had already gone through the bi polar symptoms list and once you are sure, you don't have those symptoms, why worry and take medicines for that? Your family also vouches your version. You may convince your doctor easily about it.

You may, if you want, consult a psychologist who is capable to give you a psychometric test to assess your mental health. Such a specialist is the only person who can accurately diagnose you.

If you require more of my help in this aspect, please use this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute detail possible.

Hope this answers your query. Further clarifications are welcome.
Good luck. Take care.
