It's very unusual for bipolar but it is something I've experienced called ultridian cycling. You must feel real strange if so, as I felt like someone had spiked my drink with drugs, to bring me up then bring me down. Of course I knew they hadn't, but it feels like you're more out of control than at any other time. This was at the end of a manic episode with a huge amount of stress and factors in my life both good and bad, then I ended up in hospital with a long mixed episode.

Generally people who suffer very unstable emotions, on a day to day basis, have a rough childhood, and are usually abused. Check out borderline personality for more information. They all have a fear of abandonment, and see things so black and white. One moment they'll be feeling great idealising someone, and the next, they'll be be furious, hurt, lonely, and empty over small things. They switch from depression to optimism very often and are often anxious. They change their views all the time too.

I have bipolar and live with someone with borderline.



How happy, and how long does the happiness last?

Depending on how happy, it may or may not be bipolar disorder. Is it just content, or do you get very happy? There are lots of websites on the Internet about it. However, you need to see the doctor, because it's either that or depression. *hug*
I used to be depressed, and I know it is a really difficult thing to deal with. Hope you'll be able to get help, so you can get better than you are now.



Sounds like bipolar disorder or schizophrenia. Go see a professional.
