Actually, I do have mood fluctuations, and my tendencies coincide with them. Yesterday I took the sanity test, and it appears that I have Bipolar II with hypomania.
I wrote yesterday on the bipolar forums that I usually feel down for 10 days to 2 weeks, and then experience some kind of unexplained mild mania (hypomania), and then go back to "normal" (by normal I mean I don't feel very sad as when I am extremely depressed, but I still lack motivation and interests mostly). I've noticed this cycle is repeated regularly, but I haven't tracked my mood explicitly as to report my mood fluctuations precisely. This also may explain my lack of concentration
