Your not ruminating silly lol

As for your friends reaction ? I think I’d be a bit annoyed/hurt / angry even. I think friends reaction was a bit rude and offputting

Your in a situation where hormones are likely a big portion of the problem. Yes Bipolar in the mix? Probably. But our overall health easily plays into how mental illness steers the boat sometimes.

If you trust your Pdoc I’d defiantly go in for a visit.. can you bring up your unsure about diagnosis ?

You can always get a second opinion too. A fresh set of eyes never really hurts anything
