Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am seeking SSI disability for PTSD, my recent therapist claims he can spot bipolar disorder in 5 min. and that is what he says is my diagnosis. I've taken every bipolar screening test I can find online and none indicate bipolar. I'm seriously doubting my therapists credibility now. Please advise.
Hi there, you have not mentioned your symptoms so I can't comment on your diagnosis. However you can always get opinion from other psychiatrist if you have doubts with your current doctor. All the best
