So I'm technically not diagnosed with anything, but I was in the library because of a panic attack yesterday and I started writing a story which turned into a description of what I experience when I'm high or low. After I left I gave it to one of my teachers and asked her opinion and she agrees that I might have bipolar. I score pretty high in all internet tests I take (the only tests I ever score high in are mental health ones.. oh god) and the only thing missing from my "manic" episodes is me talking faster. Right now I'm pretty depressed (see twitter for examples but be warned there are triggers, I have the same username there) and trying to persuade myself to send in the forms for counselling and a proper assessment. I'm only 16 though, and so I'm terrified they'll take one look at me and tell me to stop being a stupid teenager. :/
what do you guys think? would I be likely to be diagnosed with bipolar or am I just being a teenager?
