am i bipolar??


Question Posted Wednesday September 5 2007, 1:02 pm

Okay so recently I have been thinking that I am BiPolar. Ive searched on google like all the signs and symtoms and I have some. But im not sure. My parents are in total denial..ive told them many times that i think im bipolar and they wont believe me. Im 16 female by the way. I want to see what you people think.

This is like really hard to explain for me..so i will try my best. I have racing thoughts..pretty much all the time..especailly when i want to fall asleep. My mood does change quickly..my parents even notice it but they think its nothing. When i feel like overwhelmed..like i feel like "im at the top of the world" i hate it!! Like i try and think of things that will make me feel at the bottom of the world. Its weird. I critize like everyone mostly..but just my family usually. Sometimes i cant even remember saying hurtful things to my parents..they just come out of my mouth. Sometime i just want to be alone all by my self instead of hanging out with people. I think of my self very highly like (i dont want to sound conceited or anything). Those are most of my signs that i think can relate to this disorder. So what do you all think?
Thanks for reading.

It is quiet possible that you are bipolar. even if it's not complete polar opposite moods it could be minor. also it could possibly be manic deppresion which would explain the happiness that is so closely coupled with negative thoughts. I suggest that you ask your parents to take you to see a psychiatrist once. the thing is bipolar disorder has become very popular as a diagnose so it would not be hard to get a psychiatrist to diagnose you with it and provide medication that would help with it. of course if the medication didn't work then you might want to explore the possibility that it isn't bipolar disorder and then consult your psychiatrist. Either way you need to get your parents to at least consider the possibility that you are bipolar. I hope that this helps:)

You could be but those sympton's could also like stated before, Be horomones. At your age its very normal to critic people and think differently at different times.
I have an Auntie who is bi-polar and it can also be caused by beeing an acholic. Seeing as you are at the age, I am not saying you do drink. But it can interfer.
I would suggest maybe going to a doctor or even talking to a school counsoler, They will guide you to a place were you can for sure find out;)
Hope I helped.

Hormones... PMS... you're not bipolar.

When bipolar you visit two very different extremes. You're VERY happy, or VERY sad/angry. You'd know FOR SURE if you were.
