Has anyone here been misdiagnosed with Bipolar disorder when they are actually autistic? I’m in the process of getting an autism diagnosis and I have been told that my bipolar may have been an incorrect diagnosis. (I was diagnosed 10 years ago when I was 18 with bipolar 1, I never knew so many symptoms could overlap with autism).
