Sandi to answer the questions you asked: she has never been medicated for what I perceive to be bipolar disorder. She was prescribed medication for it once, but she never actually took it. That doctor was not sure what she had however, he was "experimenting." So I cannot say with 100% certainty she is bipolar. Her mother most certainly is.
She received her Adderall at her first meeting with her new physician. The doctor essentially asked a few questions and wrote a script. No follow up at all. Pretty scary if you ask me.
I am most certainly looking for a reason to explain this away, and the Adderall logic could be just that. The timing is pretty suspect, however.
I am working my way thru Cadet's helpful resources right now.
