Thank you all for the responses, now I know a little bit more about how bipolar disorder starts to present itself.

@moremi I can understand how the exciting situation can get you overly energized when around friends, it actually makes sense. Maybe it's just mental stimulations against the mundane, but it could be the disorder as well. I know if I were to do something like that it actually has to do with mental stimulation over the mundane always that I have each day. This too can cause me to have a long wind-down if I ever do, my mind will replay it over and over. I"m not saying my experience is the same as yours, I'm saying it's similar. Also, that's terrible that that happens to you when something bad happens, terrible that happens to anyone, but hopefully it's manageable enough now (don't take that wrong, I probably worded it weird lol). For me, it depends I guess. Something bad happens, I"m upset, like if I don't get accepted for a job I feel like there's no way I'll ever be accepted for a job, but I don't have similar issues as yours (considering I don't do much of anything anyways). I do have a bad way of handling stress though (but that's not important here). And last, for your connection to the seasons, I know how that is. Rainy, cloudy, overall dreary days dull me out, make me feel blue, but bright and sunny ones make me very happy and energetic (I've actually been known to talk hyperactively in an excited manner when going out to take photos with someone because the day was absolutely perfect). The weather and seasons effect me, but maybe it's not the same as how they effect you?

To everyone, I see a common warning sign is over-sensitivity to events and other such things, as well as mood swings (though the mood swings was obvious, no offense, just things I've read about bipolar). Thanks again for the responses, if anyone else wants to respond to the post please go ahead
