I think I'm bipolar.

I've been diagnosed with clinical depression but I think that I might be bipolar. I don't get just lows, I get highs as well. Could I be bipolar? Also does anyone have any advice for me? I'm only 14.

My advice is check with a different psych, not all see u as u might be, get a second opinion, and btw, don't trust pill pushers, i had a psych that tried to medicate me within five minutes of meeting me, and i refused. stand up for urself, and u can get through it.

14 seems to me like too young of an age to make any diagnostic decisions, but there are those who are younger than you with diagnosed Bipolar Disorder. But if you get highs as well as lows, you may be bipolar, with more lows than highs, or longer lasting & more severe lows than highs. Lots of people are like that. My husband's the other way around- He gets manic more often, more intensely, and for a longer length of time than he does with depression, although he still gets very very low, just not as badly as his mania.

If you think you're bipolar, take it up with your psych, and if you don't have one, get one. It's a bad idea for me, you or anyone else to diagnose you unless they're licensed to do so.

Hope that helped! heart
