I do not have problems staying awake, it's actually the opposite. I don't have all of the symptoms of bi polar, only a few... but I never considered it as my social anxiety and depression has been so bad, I don't get highs very often anymore.

Getting very excited when you're happy doesn't meet the criteria for mania or hypomania. In my opinion, this is not Bipolar Disorder, but it's always a good idea to share your worries with your doctor.
