I'm a teenager and I think I'm bipolar. I've taken quizzes and taken diagnostic tests that have all tested positive for the disorder, however my parents refuse to believe that I am bipolar, and, personally, I'm too ashamed to bring it up to anyone. I feel hopeless and out of place for weeks or months, but I might come out of that for maybe an hour or so a day. Then everything will seem fantastic for a while. It's almost euphoric. My ego gets huge and I ace all these tests, I get all these guys, my friends all want to hang out with me, but then I'll always get sad again somehow, and the cycle repeats. Any insight?
