How do you know if you're Bipolar?

That's really only a question a doctor can truly answer.

Some symptoms are : 1. mood changes , one time happy next time real sad.. 2.thoughts of feeling on top of the world.. 3.. Buy things then give them away . 4.. High sexual desires 5 ..Wanting to date someone , of a great amount of years differences like a 18 yr old dating a 38 yr old .. 6..Thoughts of harming self or others 7..extremely talkative.

Another name for Bipolar disorder is Manic Depression. If one day you are happy, friendly and energetic and then all of a sudden you are depressed, and dont want to be bothered, and yelling at everyone then chances are you are bipolar. Which is taken care of through medication.

Main symptoms...wild, drastic mood swings!! Kinda like PMS 24/7. Honestly, being severely depressed one minute and then bouncing off the walls with happiness the next. Check with your doctor but this sort of thing can be difficult to truly diagnose. I'd be very worried about a doctor who diagnoses this condition right away....he's just looking to sell more drugs. Don't take any medication for this condition as they can be dangerous and/or make a bad situation worse. Only consider this if you are truly unhappy with the status quo & can't go on. Otherwise, tell "everyone" to stick it and let you be!

There are different types of bi-polar. Family and friends usually see it first. They are the one who helped me. Bi-polar AKA manic-depression, are above normal highs and lows. In mania, you don't need as much sleep, think your invincible, talkative, take risk, ect. In depression, you sleep more than usual, lose interest, thoughts of suicide, negative thoughts, ect. Talk to your physician. Remember having Bi-polar doesn't mean your crazy, it's just a chemical missing in your brain.

you go through cycles of extreme happiness and then extreme sadness. On the up cycle most people work alot, sleep a little, and overspend.... On the down cycle you may feel angry, sad for no external reason.... But it is different for everyone.

You hiss when the sun comes out and your skin begins to burn when it hits the sun.....Just Kidding! if you suspect that you might be i suggest getting with your doctor this one is hard to spot sometimes. It could just be bad PMS or Menopause, depending on your age!

But if the sunlight does bother you and you howl at the moon, please stay away from Anaheim California we have enough vampires out here!

one second you could be really happy, and the next totally psycho for no reason... well the reason is the chem imbalance in the brain.

Take this quick quizz and find out ...
