So now I'm starting to believe it may or may not be a possibility that I'm not bipolar, but have some form of bipolar disorder. Sure, I could seek advice from a professional but when it comes down to it, no ones going to know myself better than me. Some clues that definitely make me stick to the ideal of having a mild form of bipolar disorder at max, are my first post on this site.
My first post has to do with me asking if I'm a sociopath or not, it's clear the answer is no. I think what might have drawn me to the thought of such a strange ideal would be whenever I experience a hypomanic episode or even the rare time of a manic episode I would do things that I normally wouldn't do, like drink more than I can handle, or take a couple more pills than I should, or travel somewhere really far with no money on hand. Some other things would be stealing from family and not really caring about it and then lying about it.
Now those aren't really sociopathic things but for some reason I thought they were, but in reality they may or may have not been related to hypomanic episodes etc. I also made a post about me thinking that I might of had borderline personality disorder. The reason for that might have been because of the constant shift between being depressed for weeks then being happy for weeks at a time and just having no ideal why this happening and why my personality is even being switched back and forth.
To conclude having bipolar disorder to some degree would make sense of so many strange things in my life. But recently my uncle and aunt moved out (I should mention they moved to Idaho and I hope they crash on the way, even if it's with my five year old cousin). That's honestly the greatest thing in the world that there gone because I hated sharing the house with them. Right now I feel pretty amazing since there gone. Just really happy, and I'm wondering is this just another episode of hypomania (which I would not mind at all and I personally hope it last for ever) or is it possible my shitty family members just depressed me and now that there finally gone I'm experiencing happiness.
