Help me find a quiz to tell if I'm bipolar?!


Question: I think I may be bipolar. I know I'm clinically depressed and made an appointment to see a psychiatrist for a diagnosis but I can't get in until mid next month. Could someone please give me some links for some online bipolar quizzes to take in the meantime?

Thanks!
