I can't say if you're Bipolar or not. I do know that you're basically quoting everyone who has ever been diagnosed with Bipolar. A lot of us try to "ride it out and see what happens" and end up wishing we hadn't. I really hope you'll reconsider and give treatment a shot. Give it five or six months, and it might work out. Or you could visit another doctor for a second opinion and see if they come to the same diagnosis.
