I felt really down then unusually happy, could it be bipolar?

Possibly: All people have changes in mood. The difference between normal and bipolar is the frequency and/or extremes of mood changes.

Bipolar: Depends on how long the symptoms occured for, if other episodes preceded this one, how intense & what effect they had on your daily functioning. Best to get evaluated by a mental health professional for assessment & tx recommendations.
