Is This Bipolar Or Borderline Or Something? Posted: 11-30-05 03:46am
Well basically I think I might be
something but I don't know what. I did a
brief overview of both but still, I don't
know unless I went to a doctor so maybe
you guys can give me some insight or
something. I know you guys aren't
doctors probably but maybe you can
relate?
Back a year ago I cut up my arms and my
dad brought me to the hospital where the
doctor said that I was probably
borderline, and my consellor said the same
thing.. Even though nothing was
official.
Things I do:
-obsessive thoughts. For example: food-
eating disorder related stuff, or guys
that I may have a fling with.. I become
obsessed with- can't stop thinking of them
over years, everyday closely examining
their profiles, web pages, conversations
over the internet. Just non-stop
thinking. (scary, im sure)
-going into antisocial moods where im very
self concsious & nervous. Cant help
but stutter when I talk or shake.
Avoiding people at all costs.
-going into moods where I have tons of
self confidence, feel superior, know
everything more than everyone else.
Constant thinking... Feeling "smart"
-feeling depressed. Worthless.
Suicidal at times.
-i've cut myself when ive become anxious,
when theres too much to handle. Ill be
crying, screaming, cutting, getting
everything out the best I can. After
that, becoming totally calm and better..
Like nothing happened.
-getting into moods where im non stop
moving. I feel good. Laughing lots.
Singing like crazy. Dancing. Wanting
to be with others. Being "hyper" like
the good old days back when I was a kid.
Sometimes my family tells me that I go too
far
-hard time concentrating a lot of the time
and easily distracted
-poor self-image
maybe you get the point...
Everything varies.
Anyhow thanks if you actually read this
whole thing.

Sounds Like Your Bipolar In My Opinion. Posted: 12-15-05 02:49am
To me it sounds like you could possible
bipolar.
From what you told,you told of a few signs
and symptoms of mania in
bipolar(manic-depressive) disorder.
Having flings and a high sexual drive is a
nother sign of mania. Being suicidel and
depressed is a sign of depression... Do
you have any family history of mental
illness in the family. Do you have moods
swings where you go from high to low and
they interfear(spelling?) with
school,work,home,etc etc? It also sound
like you could has avoidants personality
disorder. Best thing to do is to see a
ph doctor.
