Am I Bipolar?

  • -

To start, if you are concerned that you may be suffering from any behavioral disorder, it would be wise to consult a counselor. It is not a good idea to self-diagnose any mental or behavioral disorder and such a process should be conducted by a professional.

Bipolar disorder can sometimes be misdiagnosed as ADHD and vise-versa, as they share a few symptoms in common, but also because some symptoms can appear like other symptoms. Restlessness and hyper activity can both be symptoms of bipolar disorder and ADHD. Sometimes, because hyperactivity requires a lot of energy, there can be a physical “crash”. This can sometimes appear as depression, though it may not be.

In order to be sure of your symptoms, diagnosis, and best solutions, it is wise to consult a counselor for help and treatment.
