For the majority of my life I have always
accepted that there is likely something
not perfectly right about my brain. I can
tell that it works in ways that normal
people's brains don't. First major problem
is that I am constantly abnormally happy
or life just seems low and shitty (the
weather often has a strong contribution to
this). I have always had problems paying
attention, meaning I will zone out in
class, when talking to friends, or even
when I'm reading a book (I will literally
read a couple pages before realizing I was
thinking about something else and not a
word of it registered). I have suffered
from insomnia since I was 4 years old. I
have mood swings very easily. I cannot
handle emotional seperation even from a
very short lasting relationship. I have
trouble staying on task or staying
dedicated to one thing even if it's
something I enjoy. I do weird things when
my thoughts race like without realising it
I will grab the back of my head or
sometimes randomly speed up while I am
walking and slow back down again (things
like this are what have made many of my
friends realise there is something weird
about me).
What do you people think? Could all of
these things together be a sign of bipolar
disorder?

some of the things you mentioned like not
paying attention when reading a book is
not necessarily bi polar. and running or
grabbing the back of your head out of
nowhere doesnt sound like bi polar to me
either. Theres always a possibility but,
ive been bipolar for years and i dont
really have those symptoms. Go to see a
phsyciatrist and get evaluated.

SOunds more like add , adhd , or maybe
Psychotic tendencies "bad spelling"
I'm no pro but I've
always been the same except I rarely get
deppressed.Still getting diagosed which
sux + my thyroid condition
What sux right now is if you have no money
like alot of people in the US. From what
I've seen and experienced myself is that
you are lucky if even half the people do
their job right...Its just plain wrong and
pathetic
good luck
