I always feel more messed up than others think that I am. It's just because I have Bipolar. Yes, I get the moods and stuff that change frequently. I don't see a pattern yet.

I always ask people if they relate to certain things. They say thoughts move fast for anyone...so how are racing thoughts a symptom of hypomania? They say they are anxious sometimes...so how is anxiety associated with Bipolar? They say they can relate to the feeling of paranoia...of being followed or stalked...so how is paranoia related to Bipolar?
They say they get songs stuck on their head in repeat for long periods of time or short snippets that pop in and out...so how is this annoyance part of bipolar?

What is Bipolar then if so many people can relate? Everybody's mood changes. What makes ours so different? The swift change? The cycles? I'm so confused after learning that people relate to things I go through.

In addition, I feel I need to get some medicine for depression cause I suffer that a lot. Lamictal isn't enough for me. Suggestions? I will schedule an appointment with a therapist and psychologist when I move back home for the summer.
