Online tests tend to 'skew' toward the condition they're testing for. I've taken psych quizzes that would make a rock look bipolar! OTOH, if you're even the least bit concerned about it, you'd be well-advised to see a qualified mental health professional, e.g. a psychologist or psychiatrist. We cannot diagnose you here or even offer medical advice; we are a support group only.

What, other than the test, leads you to think you may be bipolar? How long have you had symptoms, if any? A doctor is really the only person who can tell you whether you have the disorder, and sometimes they don't diagnose you right away.......it can take a few visits before the picture becomes more clear.

When I was first diagnosed, my pdoc wasn't even sure I was bipolar at all, so he gave me a provisional diagnosis of depressive disorder and bipolar NOS (not otherwise specified---a wastebasket diagnosis basically). It didn't take too many visits or med adjustments for him to figure out that I was definitely bipolar, so the depression came off my medical record. The only reason I'm still labeled NOS is for insurance purposes, so he can experiment with different treatments to get me to my best life with bipolar disorder. If I had to guess, I'll probably wind up classified as Bipolar I since I've had a mixed episode and a full-blown manic episode just in the past six months. But for now, the number isn't what matters......I'm just happy to be getting back to good.

Keep us posted on what you find out when you see someone. Take care.
