Confused So I Post In Here to Ease My Mind. Posted: 05-01-05 17:52pm
Ok, i'm not sure if I have just plain
anxiety or bipolar and anxiety. I'll go
through a run through of my past year:
i started college recently, at first I wen
through a irrational depression so I was
withdrawn. As time when one I had a few
friends that would try to get to know me.
Around january. She told me how she knows
nothing about me, I felt very passive and
unable to explain to her. It was slightly
common for me.
When I go home, I have friends that I love
and I talk to. I can meet new people and
love doing it, usually with no problem. I
would over analyze situations; like when
she wondered why I acted very distant, I
would become oddly nervous and say jokes
to people around me, to distinguish and
awkward feelings I have. Latley, i've
been going through weird moments of being
really happy, or acting happy and feeling
slightly empty. I will make constant
jokes and feel on top of the world,
however, I will over analyze a situation
and become randomly upset. I was feeling
quite ok recently, then when I was with a
few friend I started to become slightly
withdrawn torwards the night. I was on
three hours of sleep and slightly
inebriated but basically fine. Well,
while flirithing; this girl would lay her
head o n me and I would feel heart
palpitations and felt slightly surreal. I
couldn't help it....After ruining a moment
with the two of us I felt really
upset-thinking I will never get a chance
ot fix it. Every hour or two, i'll feel
upset or i'll start thinking of ways to
fix the problem to alleive myself. I
often try to find what's wrong and I soon
become lethargic and don't care at those
moments, regarding the situation. It's
very hard for me to write what I feel,
because I feel like it's not fully
explaining it. I guess i'll lastly say
that i'm not stressed by school work at
all, I can't sleep and feel very tired
when awake, sometimes I can feel very
energetic on little sleep. I feel that I
can feel happy one moment then feel down
about something the next but i'm unsure if
that's a distinction of bipolar or just
anxiety and occasianol unhappiness.
Explain something to me to ease my
curiousity until i'm able to see a doctor
for a true diagnosis.
-i have great and horrible friend making
skills.

I dont want to scare you but you sound
like you might have bipolar disorder...
Sorry didn't mean to frighten you but mood
swings that drastic sound like a
characteristic...
Go to a Dr. To make sure, medication
helps.
Take care hope you feel better keep
posting.
