I'm thinking I have some type of mood, maybe biplor cause it runs in my family, and ive taken two depression type online and was going to bring them with me cause I have trouble explaining myself but I don't want the doctor to think I'm doing her job or anything like that. I don't want her not to take me serious because of this. I just needed to help me explan and a guild line?

Has anyone brought online test with them to doctor app. How did it go?

Online tests aren't enough evidence to prove you have a mood disorder.

My opinion is that you should talk to the doctor and mention your concerns. Is your doctor a general practitioner or are you seeing a psychologist? If it's the former, they may refer you to a psychologist who can then see if you have a mood disorder and work with your general practitioner to help manage it.

I was diagnosed with NVLD (non verbal learning disorder), dysmythia, and generalized anxiety disorder back in August of 2010 and the psychologist I saw forwarded his initial findings to my general practitioner who then put me on anti-depressants to help with the depression and anxiety.

I don't think you're going to offend the doctor. If you can't explain it well, let them know that's why you brought in the information. :)
