Thank you, Gr3tta. At some point I did think that I had BP II or at least Cyclothymia, but when I brought up my concerns to my parents, they gently reminded me that I'm a hypochondriac and when I "self-diagnose" myself, it leads to a self-fulfilling prophecy. Therefore, I try not to focus on the possibility so much. My GP suggested the possibility of "mild dysthymia", which I found hilarious, since "dysthymia" is already mild in itself and my depressions are
not mild. They start off as mild, but they slowly descent into a much darker picture. However, I'm pretty sure it's my fault since I didn't tell him all of my symptoms (my mother was in the room with me).
In regards to the mania, I'm not sure if it was indeed a manic episode or not. I know that it was unlike what I've felt before, and some days my happiness was borderline psychotic, but most of the time I wasn't really that hyper and I got more than eight hours of sleep each night.
I realize now that I may need to seek help, even if it is just adolescent mood swings. Obviously I'm not coping very well, despite whatever it may be. I guess I'll just have to wait until tomorrow and see how I feel.
Thanks again.
