Answers:

There are so many mental disorders, it would be impossible to diagnose just from your symptoms. But it does sound like bipolar disorder or possibly borderline personality. Make sure to have a list of symptoms for your doctor and be honest. Being honest is the only way you can get treated properly. If you are prescribed meds just remember it takes time for them to work and sometimes you have to try several different ones to find the one that works for you. Good luck
