I've always been up and down too often to call it a normal change in mood. When I am down, there is no bringing me up. During these times I have no motivation. I just want to lay in bed. When happy, it's so easy for me or anyone else to bring me down. But when I'm happy I actually get out of bed the first time the alarm goes off. I pay attention in class and actually feel interested in what's going on. I'm motivated to study and do homework. On the other hand, small things like hearing people breathe, chewing their food, or tapping a pencil literally drives me insane and makes me so angry I just want to scream. I realize all of it is ridiculous and that there's no reason for me to feel the way I do, I just can't pull myself out of it. One of my friends sat me down the other night and told me I needed to talk to a psychologist or something. I've always known I am up and down but the fact that she is noticing it too bothers me.

I'm the same way!! Its like this rage comes over me & the smallest things could set me off & I can't seem to shake it. I just need to be left alone, with no sounds or anything. Sometimes idk why I feel the way I do & that drives me nuts & gets me more aggitated.

I am diagnosed with BP and am not on meds. I sometimes question my diagnosis & wonder if I'm just a raging B****, but I read something on this site saying that being really aggitated is a symptom of mania (& I thought mania was just a good & elated feeling & apparently its not).

Anyways, I strongly suggest that u go & talk with a psychologist or therapist or something... I hope you get some answers! Good luck!! :screwy:
