Bipolar Type. Haven't had a manic episode in a long time though, last time I was up for 4 days straight I'm pretty stable currently, just have been having minor adjustments to my meds.

That is what I'm trying to figure out in a sense. I know I have major depression but I'm starting to think I may have a bipolar disorder.
