I've known I was bipolar since I was 19 years old. My mind races a lot and sometimes I have trouble sleeping at night. I'm just constantly thinking what I have to do the next day. My medication is helping me regardless and the darker thoughts are no longer here which is a good thing.
However I'm still sad at times and other times I feel really happy. It always depends on what's happening. Read a few books as well and they truly helped me. Yesterday I was doing just fine and today I'm sad. It's not all that sunny today and my moods usually are affected by the weather. Good thing I don't drink because I know that wouldn't help matters much at all.
Just hate feeling the way I am right now because nothing happened to trigger this mood swing at all and all I think of what it is; is the weather.
