Answers:
Rapid cycling bipolar disorder is when you have four or more distinctly unhealthy moods (any combination of depression, mania, hypomania and mixed states, usually lasting at least 1 (mania) or 2 (the others) weeks) in the space of a year!.

People with ultra-rapid cycling have many more unhealthy moods - often changing every few days or weeks!.

People with ultradian cycling have several mood swings per day!.

Rapid cycling bipolar disorder is a very serious form of the disease, and notoriously difficult to treat!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First off, bipolar is a disorder where your mood swings from extreme to extreme!. It doesn't moderate and it won't stabilize!. If you do too much, if you over exert, if you spend too much time in the sun, the dehydration can set off some severe mood swings where you are happy and seemingly euphoric one minute, and sad and desperately unhappy a half an hour later!. It's not logical to be so moody so quickly, but that's the bipolar way!.
To rapid cycle and have racing thoughts means you have a mania!. You should seem very hyper, you talk fast maybe, and you process thoughts quickly without a proper, normal follow-through!. You might process ideas, but maybe you aren't as fully involved in such a way that you can actually do it, you just run on to something else!.
It's not unusual for a bipolar to do this!. Your doctor is trying to diagnose you to provide the proper medicine so you can calm down and focus!. More than anything, he doesn't want to judge you or make you feel crazy, he just wants to find you the help you need!.
I don't think you are crazy, I think this reflects a feeling of being overwhelmed and you have trouble finding a sure footing!. The doctor is suppose to help with that!. If he doesn't grasp the essence of your struggle and you continue in it, he isn't doing his job!. Somewhere, somehow, you should be able to find what you need!. He just wants what is best for you!.
I hope you find that you are many things, but crazy isn't one of them!. Soon you will work it out and it will be all right!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It is actually called Rapid Cycling Bipolar!. When you have the regular form of bipolar the episodes of depression and mania lasts for a month or more!. Rapid cycling is when you go through your episodes very quickly and can go up and down several times in one day!. Look up the term DSM-IVTR rapid cycling bipolar and you can read the criteria one has to meet for a doctor to diagnose this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its called rapid cycling, you can google it for more info!. But its considered rapid cycling when you have 4 or more episodes in a year!. Which is pure hell!. Some people constantly cycle and really have no normal mood, which extremely rare by the way!. It would be like severe depression, then a mixed episode, then mania, then back to depression, with or without normal periods in between!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes, it is enough!. i know many people on disbility for this condition!.
call your local social security office!. the rapid cycling can be destructive to your life unless you get on medicine's for it!. it is my understanding that rapid cyclers have quicker, and more often, ups and downs that the others!. i saw a friend go from extreme depression, with no energy to having a elated mood, with lots of energy all of a sudden!. it was wild!.
she is on disability for it!. best wishes for you, my heart goes out to you!. on a positive note, my friends does get better with the meds!. she gets much worse if she does not take them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I went down for the count in 2002!. Social Security approved SSDI for this and I was on it till Feb this year when they did a review and found me to be healthy again!. Now looking for a job!. You could also get SSI!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It means that you cycle very quickly between manic and depressive states!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
