I suspect I might be bipolar
I don’t want to self diagnose but idk everything just feels to intense rn.
I’m diagnosed with depression. I was on anti depressants for maybe a year before I was taken off. I had a horrible councillor it felt like she hated me for no reason. I don’t remember anything about my medication apart from to was an SSRI.
I always assumed my “low moments” were just depressive episodes and they probably just are I’m probably over reacting but they are a lot. I get a lot of suicidal thoughts. I can feel one of those moments coming because over the last few days there’s been more thoughts. I don’t plan on killing myself sometimes I just feel I don’t want to exist.
I don’t even think about that when I’m actually happy I feel incredible. Absolutely amazing. I’m actually able to do things. My hobby’s, clean my room, shower. I absolutely grind in the gym I feel incredible. This hit and I haven’t been to the gym, my room is a state, I don’t remember when I last showered or washed my clothes. I was non stop thinking about this girl I like and now I couldn’t care less about her.
I was happy for the last bit. Very happy. Now I don’t want to do anything. I feel like everyone is against me and everyone hates me. It’s a pattern. When I’m happy those are just thoughts in the back of my head, when I’m down they are feelings I truly have. I get very paranoid all the time but more when I’m down. When I’m good I’m very hyperactive, I also have adhd so again I’m probably making things up. Last night I had good craic with my family and now I don’t want to do anything. I have a graduation party tonight and I’m not going. Usually I wouldn’t think twice because I love a good party especially with alcohol.
I haven’t been to a councillor in maybe 2 years. Iv been to 4 over 6 years. 1 from the HSE i believe, 2 from school and 1 grief councillor. My first one (hse) was amazing and got me my anxiety and depression diagnosis. My first one from school was an evil person I hated her so much the minute I felt happy she told me to stop my medication and I did. She was horrible I could go on and on. My second from school was so kind and I miss her. My grief councillor I stayed with the longest.
I felt like I needed her to actually function. I hated the idea of leaving because I got to talk to her about everything, not just specific things like the others but actually everything and I felt like she actually listened to me.
I don’t want to feel like shit and I don’t want to be bipolar but I don’t feel right I don’t feel normal. I’m paranoid and anxious, I’m depressed and have suicidal thoughts no one knows about. I’m an angry person.
I’m losing track of what I’m talking about because I just want to go back to sleep. I just needed to talk because no one here can tell me if I am or aren’t and I like that. No one can tell me what I am when irl they can and I don’t want it. My college has free councilling if I hold out for a few months I can talk to someone but I don’t want my parents to notice.
Basically bc I realised I don’t know what I’m saying anymore. Looking at symptoms of bipolar it feels right. I thought bpd a while ago but that was defo only in my head bc an ex gf of mine is going through the process of that i believe or at least was I don’t remember. Yes it could just be depression but i don’t know anymore I feel insane and I don’t feel like myself at all. I just found out I am about to start testosterone (I’m trans) and I should be happy and I was but I feel miserable now. Literally last week I found out and I got to be happy for a few days.
I’m not even saying anything because I just needed to get my thoughts out not all my details. If I get to a counsellor I will but for now I’m saying some things and just being able to relive myself
