As Moose said, if you're concerned about suffering from Bipolar Disorder, I would get a referral from your GP/PCP to see a psychiatrist. It may take some time to diagnose, as he/she gets to know you (in fact, I'd be wary of off the bat diagnoses), but it might help you to get a better idea as to what is going on. Bipolar Disorder is a very complex diagnosis to make as some symptoms can mimic, on the surface, symptoms of other disorders (or just 'life').

To understand more fully what is going on from a psychological standpoint, and have someone to talk to about these things, you can seek out the help of a therapist. You could get a referral from your GP or pdoc, if you get one. Best of luck.
