Q: 13/f

I think that I am bipolar. I'll be happy and obnoxious one moment and then the next I'll feel so depressed that i want to die. How do you know if you're bipolar? What do I do if i am? How do I tell my parents?
Here are some helpful websites that help you identify if you have Bipolar disorder or not and what you can do about it.

http://www.bipolar.com/

http://familydoctor.org/625.xml

http://www.nmha.org/bipolar/public/signs.cfm


If you think you have it, you can tell your parents by saying "I looked up information on the Bipolar disorder, and some of the symptoms listed are what I'm going through right now". Show them the websites, explain what you feel sometimes, and they should be understanding of it. You can go to a doctor and he/she can determine if you have it or not...and go from there.

Good luck.

thanks so much
