I'm curious, is having a very low tolerence for commotion a syptom of bipolar. Its seems that it takes very little for me to become inexplicably frustrated. Just having 2 or three things taking place at once makes me feel overloaded, I remeber once in jr. high gym class acctually blacking out while playing basketball, I didn't actually pass out, but when I came to I was trying steal the ball from my teammate, even to this day when things get hectic I feel like I have tunnel vision and my brain just starts to get fuzzy. I would like to apologize in advance, I am a very curiuos person and will be asking alot of questions. Especially since after reading my medical report from when I was hospitalized that there seemed to be some question as to biploar being the proper DX. One doctor said that I have some mood disorder, biploar or other.

Hi,

Commotion upsets me terribly right now and makes me trigger. Of course, I have a lot of dxs other than bp, so I can't tell for sure if it sets off the bp, but I know it doesn't help it.

low tolerance for "commotion" sounds like a stress reaction, imo. Depression makes us back away from stuff too, but what you describe sounds more reactive to me. Lack of concentration can be the depressive side, too. Frustration? That sounds like stress.

My own tolerance -- and even enjoyment of -- commotion waxes and wanes with my bp cycles. My boss is always criticizing my inability to "multi-task," but I must confess, I do find doing this bloody well impossible while in a depressive cycle. On the other hand, a hypomanic cycle tends to make me seek out as many sensory stimuli as possible at once. With my bp, I'm more often on the "down" lift than the "up" one, so I could see commotion becoming a problem for someone with bp (and there's never been any real disagreement about my dx, despite the fact that I've seen many docs and Ts). Just my two cents. Ta. Cheshire Cat
