Depending on sypmtom: Getting a diagnosis of bipolar disorder is dependent on your symptoms and if you respond to antidepressants or not. Do you go through regular periods of feeling really good or it could be agitated and irritable, feel ok for a while then feel depressed? You must have questions due to how you have been feeling. Please find a therapist who specializes in this and find out and get help.
