Hiya I'm 26 and my life has been what you would call a yo-yo or at the moment the maddest rollercoaster ever. Since being 15 I have had anorexia, bulimia, depression, suicide attempts and then I found alcohol then other recreational drugs more to self medicate my then lack of self esteem. I have been in very dangerous situations, one minute I think I am worthless and unattractive, other times (esp with a bit of male attention) I fell sexy and have casual affairs which in turn result in me feeling crap. I have wrote off a car once (i have no licence) lucky no one else were involved but me, I do wierd things, talk random stuff, can't stop fidgeting. and then there is the 7000 quid debts I have run on what? a mad episode ? Anti depressants dont work, i mean I am not low all the time i am sometimes hyperactive, very irritable and irrational. I have wierd dreams, ideas and live out of reality most of the time. Hence I have yet again screwed up my nursing course, though I am nearly finished.

Is this bipolar?

If you're worried that these behaviors and emotions are affecting your life, then you should see a doctor and explain it all. Once you get a good diagnosis, you'll have a better idea about how to proceed from there.
