Bipolar Disorder?

[Minotaur]

How does one tell if they have it? I've been having phases when I feel totally manic, the happiest person on Earth as though nothing at all can get me down and on others, I feel totally defeated and hopless without any external influences or changes at all! I don't think this is normal so I did an online test (which I don't trust the result of, but still) and it said that it's highly likely that I have Bipolar.

Does anyone else have it? If so, how did you find out?

The best way to find out for sure is to go to your gp, be very truthful, and see what they think.

I agree, go to your GP and see what they have to say.
An online test can't diagnose you, a doctor can :)

aye - mood swings must affect your life too, to become diagnosed with bipolar. *shrugs* i just seen my gp and he refared me to a psych x
