My mum is a bipolar disorder 1 patient and a mild schitzophrenic. i'm starting to get bipolar symptoms but my gp says that i'll be fine and should do more breathing. ishe correct?

Well the issue: Is that there an increased risk for a mood disorder (to include bipolar disorder) if your parent has it. It can show up in childhood and teen years. Please have your parents support you in obtaining a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. This is an important issue. Take care.

More support: It's great your gp says you'll be fine, you probably appear to handle it well. You are going through a lot and in a time of your life when you need parental guidance and/ or extra outside support. There is no way it can be easy having a mother with bipolar 1 at any age. You need help for yourself. Therapy and support groups can be a good place to start. Best to you and your mother.

Need a psych eval: Please get a psychiatric evaluation. You are already having depressive symptoms and i would hate to see you be given a primary antidepressant and be thrown into a manic episode. See a psychiatrist with a large bipolar practice and who will treat you only if necessary and by the current standard of care. Try to avoid antidepressants if you can. Best wishes to you and your mother.
