Am i bipolar?

Well, I'm starting to suspect I might either be bipolar, or have ADD. I have these horrible mood swings, I get unbelievably emotional (for example, i was watching a commercial for abandoned and abused animals and started bawling). I'm sometimes (usually) really withdrawn in social situations, and I'll have an emotional breakdown at least once a week. I usually find it very hard to concentrate in school, with my parents, ect. If it helps, I have ipod ADD.
Help?

      So a bipolar bear would be a bisexual polar bear, right?

    Quit smoking grass and eat more green vegetables in your diet.

    I'm think I may be bipolar, and there's nothing wrong with being bipolar. The thing that sucks, though, is that both the manic and depressive spells can last quite a while.

    All women are not bipolar. The only problem we have is dealing with retarded ass men with the mind of a pubescent lil horney boy!! Dealing with irrational no brain" I'll let my penis do the thinking" guys makes us insane. Having to deal with lying pigs, cheating assholes and abusers horn dogs makes women miserable not bipolar!

    Mistergee81, has a point, it is just life and some cope better than others, this is the queen of mood swings speaking, I know what it's like, to feel crappy for nooooooooooooooooooo reason, just something tips you, and you don't really know what. The key is to give that feeling a time limit, say 5-10 mins and then drag yourself out of it, get busy, listen to some music. Think and be positive.

    err apparently i'm "bipolar". but i think bipolar is defined more by being extremely intuitive and in touch with the world around you.

    it's completely false to generalize it as completely negative or "oh, mood swings." so be careful.

    some random guy said britney spears had bipolar after her strange behavior. not a professional.

    you can't diagnose yourself when there is such a false social stigma.

    It could be bi-polar but you may have another condition that envolves the chemical balance in your brain. It can may you have random mood swings and make you feel like your mind is spinning. My dad has it. Certain medicines can help (although he refuses yto take them). You may want to talk to your doctor, a counselor or a psychiatrist about it.

    Life sucks, get used to it. But yeah, not normal, it might be a phase, or you might need to be prescribed some happy pills.

    I am Bipolar and I am a major @sshole. In fact all my life I have been a selfish, @sshole. I would love to strangle myself. I tend to project my hate on to other and blame them for my failures. All I can say in my defense is that I am only human. I can't seem to keep a job long as I am not able to focus since I hate the job with a passionate hatred. Wish I could choke to death so I could reincarnate into a better life.
