the things i talked about in this thread throughout

what are your opinions? or feelings?

What you described sounds like textbook Bipolar disorder.
You also seem to have some paranoia, these can be signs of some sort of psychosis or even early schizophrenia.

I however am not a qualified mental health professional. But without a question you should consult a doctor or psychologist.

I agree with your second statement, i have talked to lots but just wanted to see what the majority of people sorta thought like so a public forum may give me many perspectives. probably not a best place to do it tho ?

Bunch of proles/geeks vs. an Individual that studied X topic at a university level for 7-10 years...hmmmm.

Agreed 100% its just interesting to see what everyday people have to say.

the guy who said you have bipolar didn't even say which type. he also didn't ask about the transience ( or lack of) in your lability of moods. time is important. if you oscillate within minutes, hours, or days, it is indicative of something other than moods turning only after weeks or months


7-10 years at uni doesn't mean much. people who say such things are ignorant. imagine a chemistry major. knows much about chemistry, yes? what is to stop someone's ordering all the chemistry textbooks that person utilized in his education? ordering chemicals online and doing experiments? perhaps there is some lab equipment not so easily obtainable, but you get the idea. even dumber to suggest psychology is something you can actually know.
I've been to dozens of psychiatrists and psychologists over the last 5ish years and literally 1 doctor has been fairly emphatic with telling me I have something. a couple others said they were quite sure, and the vast majority were concerned more with helping me than labeling my condition. many even refused or were uncomfortable with giving me a diagnosis

also a lot of the disorders occur simultaneously. so it isn't exactly like you will have disorder "x." someone could have a personality disorder which occurs alongside or is caused by anxiety and depression, yet it is only the anxiety which elicits their desire for treatment

Well if you had actually read the other content in the thread you'd have seen that he already states that he knows he has bipolar.
Lol.
Yes, do tell me about these so called individuals that go to work and then come back home and immerse themselves into very specific and complex textbooks.
