    Doesnt really sound like bipolar disorder at all. Go to a doctor. thats the way. Symptoms are very brief and unhelpful, they dont describe the disorder at all just a vague outline. the ilness is much more complicated and has way more symptoms.

    There is no sure way of knowing if you have this disorder, one thing you could find out is if anyone else in your family has a history of this!! Only your doctor can say if you have this or not, if your really in doubt make an appointment and they will guide you in the right direction. I wish you all the best.... Ka kite ano
