Diagnosed.

Becca

So I recently got diagnosed with Bipolar 2 Disorder and I’ve been on Medication for about a week now. Before the diagnosis, I’ve been in talk therapy for about 2 years now currently and I started to notice how when it comes to anxiety, my therapist kinda brushes off what I’m saying about it because he says to “lean on the facts” and I do that and still felt the anxiety. So I decided to find more help and I went to a psychiatrist, and my therapist wasn’t too happy about that. He mentioned I had manic depressive episodes but never mentioned a thing about a disorder. I got a second and third opinion and they diagnosed me with Bipolar II Disorder without even knowing I went to see another person for a second/third opinion. Should I find a new therapist? How should I talk to my therapist about this whole thing because I low key wanna find a new one.
