Could this be bipolar?!


Question: Could this be bipolar!?
okay so i get depressed really easily then i get really happy and hyper (mania i think it's called!?) but i don't hallucinate or have insomnia for weeks!. my moods go from one end of the spectrum to the other in seconds!. i've been reading about the signs of bipolar disorder, and i see most of those in myself, except for the really severe mania, as in hallucinations and the long-term insomnia!. actually, it's quite the opposite for me, i get very sleepy randomly throughout the day, even if i've had 8-9 hours of sleep the night before, and i can barely stay awake after 8 PM, which effects my social and educational life!.

could this be bipolar disorder!? i know i need to go to a professional (btw, who should i go see, a therapist, psychologist, or psychiatrist!?) to get an accurate diagnosis, but i just want a general idea of yes or no before i pay someone a bunch of money to tell me there's nothing wrong with me!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

People with Bipolar Disorder don't cycle that quickly, in my experience!. I've been diagnosed for 4 years but have had it longer than that, and I didn't cycle that quickly ever!. It may be something else!. I would see a psychiatrist for a diagnosis, but be prepared; if you are diagnosed as something, a psychiatrist will most likely prescribe medication and suggest therapy along with it and you will most likely ride the "Prescription Roller Coaster," as I call it!.

Good luck to you!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Bipolar disorder doesn't normally cause multiple mood shifts within a single day, although you might have ultra-rapid cycling if you are bipolar!.

See a psychiatrist - they diagnose mental illnesses and prescribe medications!. A psychologist or therapist won't do you any good!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I'd call it hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia is an ailment characterized by irrational behavior, emotional instability, distorted judgment, and nasty personality defects!.
