I'm not sure if you have talked to other people that are like 16 but everyone goes through this stage. It's just a stage though. It happens for like two years. During these two years bad things happen to mature you because when you were younger you always thought life was fair and you would never be sad. I know I'm 14 and I won't be 15 until 6 months and I won't be 16 until 6 months and a whole year. So, just keep reminding yourself that this is just a stage that matures you. It's to make you think about other things. It can also turn you into another person. It's a big change that nobody's ready for. Ask anybody though, cause everyone goes through this. Just know that someday you'll be changed and matured and your life will be different. Life has sooo many twist and turns. It's all fate though. One day you'll be where you belong. No, its not a mental disorder. I have mood swings all the time. So it'll be fine. I really hope this helps you!!! ]
Maybe you have depression, but it sounds more like mania to me. I just answered a question like this and you can see the answer on my advice column. I'd see a psychiatrist and get diagnosed if I were you. As for your mother, let her know that she needs to be more supposrtive and more empathetic for your problems. Also, I'm not sure if your heading has anything to do with how you feel or if its a random title, but if it does, maybe your making yourself sick thinking your fat. Like I said, I'd see a psychiatrist.
Goodluck. ]
Your mother is wrong. This is cause for great concern. If your mood is fluctuating that often and you are experiencing a lot of highs and lows you might be in trouble. This is especially so if you are being depressed or extremely hyper and then crashing all the time.
You need to see a medical professional and preferably a psychiatrist. You have multiple systoms which may mean you could be bipolar. Right now you aren't manic or delusional but you need to get this checked out. I know because I have it. Regular depression isn't like this with moods, hyper activity and constant highs and lows but bipolar is.
I wouldn't trust a family doctor to make this diagnoses or prescribe anything. You need to see a psychiatrist or visit an emergency room and tell them exactly what is going on and have an assessment by a psychiatrist there.
What your mother says are hormonal changes is wrong. This is the exact same set of symptoms that need to be present for the onset of bipolar disorder. Only a doctor can determine that but you shouldn't sit back and not do anything. Act now. ]
It's a stage teens go through. Hormons is a big part of it. Maybe you're bi-polar. I doubt though. It's hormons, listen to your mom. You can take anti-depresents. ]
