Is it normal to wonder if i am notmal?

I am wondering If I am normal. I have mood swings, and sometimes it seems like it escalates out of control. I get into really good moods and feel so happy and productive, and sometimes I get into moods where I feel unconfident and sad. I have studied some bi- polar literature, but I dont think my mood swings are that major. For example: last night I was talking to my bf about his next visit to see me, and he was wishy washy about dates. I assumed he had put our visit on the back burner which made me mad, then I found myself crying and thinking about whether he loves me as much as I do him, if I am important, and if he was ever going to come down. He got frustrated with me, and after I apologized and we talked a little more, I began to feel a little better. However i did feel like a bad person for worrying and letting my feelings get out of control through most of the conversation.

So am I normal?? Is anyone else like this??

  • it does sound a little bi polar. i am 2 but all it took to help me was some anti depressants. im on 20 mgs of celexa and have been since i was 16. i would go from so depressed i would attempt suicide to so happy i would basically bounce off the walls and alienate my friends i was so happy...and sometimes at bad times...like funerals...leading to more depression. and the mood changes were almost instantaneous. this was a quote from me back then "HAPPY HAPPY JOY JOY HAPPY HAPPY JOy joy hap..ugg am i dead yet? just f***ing kill me...
    but after the pills im perfectly fine unless i miss a dose. so it may be bi polar or the other ppl may be right and its just teenage hormones. adolescents is a bitch like that. lol

  • Well I'm no expert on woman phycology but I agree with yarbar3. This, of coarse is normal. It is in our human nature to have insecurities and wonder if we are normal, I think the faster we all realise this truth the faster we can stop acting like were invulnerable to what people say and do to us and understand each other and be there for each other when we need them the most. When it comes down to it people need people around them or they'll go insane from loneliness. Wow I really got of track there lol. Just tell your bf how you feel.

  • Yes it's normal, especially if you are a girl. It's probably something to do with your menstrual cycle. I get randomly teary all the time and sometimes don't even want to leave the house but other times I want to be in town, socialising. My friends are incredibly understanding of my mood swings though... I wouldn't read too much into bipolar though because if you did have it, I'm sure your family would notice and sometimes Reading things like that plant seeds in your mind and cause huuuuge amounts of stress..
