Bozo, have you read the piece from the NY Times in the sticky above?
It's VERY informative!
http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...-ny-times.html (Bipolar information from the NY Times)
Another one is this:
Bipolar II, Mood Swings without Mania; Brain Tours; Stress and Depression; Hormones and Mood; and more...
I know it's a lot of information at once. Try to work your way through it a bit at a time, maybe? It's really good info and should help you discern if you need to talk it over with your doctor more. The second link has more on the bipolar spectrum disorder -- the newer way of looking at it. And feel free to ask as many questions as you need.
But, why do you think you are bipolar?
Shalom!
