There is no laboratory test available to confirm the diagnosis of Bipolar Disorder. The diagnosis is based on review of the symptoms reported and the mental status examination (a systematic interview for a layperson) conducted by a Psychiatrist. You should just maintain the faith in your Psychiatrist and refrain from getting casual consultations, as it can be detrimental at times.
