I asked this question already but I could not view it.

I have been such a mess for a while. Everybody says I feel this way because I am a teenager but I have felt like this for years, It starter when I was in 2nd and 3rd grade and I sure was not a teen then but anyways, the thing is

some days I feel like I am fine, and some i am depressed and want to be dead but I WONT kill myself out of respect for my family I just cry and sleep in bed all day and when i am at school i ain't with it my grades are going down. I don't feel myself breathing i feel nothing. I just feel empty and all black inside its real bad.

then there are times i feel unstoppable, filled with a ridiculous amount of energy and joy, when I fill like this I do some idiotic things because I do feel like nobody can stop me. I feel like a super hero one time i was at the mall and thought i was going to start climbing the walls like spider-man and my brother basically pinned me to the chair and said you need to stop you are acting crazy.

I just don't know for sure what it could be my friend thinks i am bipolar but I am not sure what that is and it scares me. Does anyone have any advice for me? Please don't be mean I am scared about this.

i really feel for you. that does sound terrible.

now, i do think that's bipolar. that's like textbook case bipolar. it consists of major depression (which you've got, wanting to die, staying in bed) and manic episodes, like your "delusions of grandeur" (as it's called in psych lingo), you thinking you can climb walls. other ones include thinking you're unstoppable, you can't die, you can fly, you spend all your money cause you think you're gonna become a millionaire, etc. Manic episodes are actually more dangerous than the depressives, because people can get hurt accidently (like if they try to fly). another sign of bipolar is that you've been depressed since like 7 - 9 years old. normally depression itself doesn't hit that young, but it's a sign of bipolar if it does hit that young. it's not a terrible thing being diagnosed really. I'm bipolar II (I don't get manic episodes but hypomanic, which is a lesser form of mania), and it's helped a lot since getting diagnosed. i'm now on proper pills which help a ton. and really, what have you to lose? and you've a lot to gain. but you really sound bipolar. please get help! talk to your parents. i hope something works, and if you wanna just talk (get it off your chest) or have.. questions or whatnot, i don't know, feel free to pm. i'm also interested to see how it turns out. please take care! :)

You should see a doctor. It sounds as if you may have bipolar. I am bipolar as well, and there are millions of us out there, so if you are, you are not alone.

sounds alot like bi-polar disorder................

yap that's def bipolar.. i am exactly the same way! but more on the depressive side tho.. i was always hyper add child when i was little... a spoiled, uncontrollable brat, then got troublesome and a rebel in my teens.. now, im a depressive mess.. but my moods, they change.. i can be so depressed, feel so empty, and alone... feels like the whole world is moving forward, but im at a stand still seeing the world Through a daze, a little peep hole.. and it's hard to catch up to things.. everyone else is just getting along with their lives.. and im struggling to get through the day! :( then other days, i feel like im on top of the world, all bouncy, bubbly, laughing my head off about burps, farts and what not.. so sorry if that was TMI.. but yappers.. don't have that many friends.. i don't get along with my fiance that well.. he's also bipolar i think... but he's never gotten diagnosed.. but it runs in his family... never gotten along with me mum.. we always clash, she says things with out thinking, always bitches about my weight and what i eat..
