Can you tell me the symptoms of Bipolar disorder?

Question

I've read about them - but i want to hear them from other peoples answers. Some people think i have bipolar, i see somebody for my depression.

Answer 1

For more info about the symptoms of bipolar disorder see http://www.identifybipolardisorder.com

Answer 2

For me it's alot of alternating aggression and depression, dysfunctional relationships with friends and family, inability to hold a stable job, doing poorly in classes from lack of motivation and desire rather than lack of know-how. It's different for everyone.

Answer 3

Bipolar is extreme mood swings..... period. These moods can be manic psychosis or overly hyper or can be moods of deep depression. They don't have to be triggered, although they can be. I know that don't make much sense but my experience having BP is that one minute I'm in a down mood and then the next minute I could take someones head off in an angry fit. It's like there is no middle ground (without meds). I can be triggered by a co worker or a rude cashier or I can be by myself and do the same things. It's a disease/syndrome that sucks!!!!! lol Hope this helps. It's so hard to explain but very hard to personally deal with.
