Am i bipolar??

Alright, well when I'm at school or with my friends I'm always really happy, but then once I get home I start being really sad and I don't feel like doing anything but sit at the computer and listen to music.
Also, when I'm at school if I arrive sad or upset about something I always find myself smiling and laughing like everythings normal! I dot get what's goof on! :\ I also think I have social anxiety disorder.
And one last thing, when I'm in my depressed mood I don want to be happy or cheered up, I kind of somehow like it. Is this normal?? :\

    No, you don't sound like you have bipolar disorder. It sounds like you're just moody, and that's absolutely normal, especially if you are a teenager. Take it from someone who does have bipolar disorder and has been officially diagnosed as having such... Bipolar is not just being "happy" and "sad". Depression for bipolar people is MAJOR depression. Feelings of worthlessness, helplessness, guilt..usually lasting at least 2 weeks. During my depressed phases, I will lay in bed for days without leaving my apartment. I will isolate from people and tend to self-injure to deal with the feelings of guilt and worthlessness.
    And mania is more than just feeling happy. When I am manic, I feel absolutely invincible, like I can rule the world. I spend money to the point where I find myself in serious debt. I partake in risky behaviours like pissing off the wrong people, driving 30 miles over the speed limit, basically doing risky behaviours because I have such invincibility in my mind. Plus, I troll like a mofo when I'm manic.
    So, to make a long story short, I doubt you have bipolar disorder. I think you just have normal hormones.

    You are not Bi-Polar. Hormonal, moody and yes a typical teenager. Please don't try to have a mental health problem, they really are not that fun!

    Im the original poster,

    I didn't mean like full-on social anxiety, but I think i have it because I get nervous when I have to read out loud or answer questions or just speak up in general in class, and im bad at thinking of things to say when I'm having a conversation and my hands get sweaty just thinking about being in front of a crowd :P

  • No, you are not bi-polar. It is characterized by periods of depression and then hyper, anxious states. My brother has it and you don't sound like it at all.

    My guess is you have regular depression and since it occurs at home, there's something about that place that makes you unhappy or inspires the feeling in you. I would talk to your doctor or someone.

    Also if you can hang around friends and such, you do not have Social Anxiety, I suffer badly from that and I can't be in any social situation without panicking.

    You're not bipolar. If you were your moods would be largely unpredictable and not based on your situation.

    Otherwise I don't know what's going on. If you had social anxiety I would think you'd hate school.
