Being hyper and then being depressed are symptoms of being bipolar, but only a mental health professional will be able to tell you if they are truly bipolar. Sometime bipolar people go on manic episodes where they think they are unstoppable and do all kinds of crazy things. The episodes could last days and days, then they go into a serious depression.. the kind of depression that they can't even get out of bed. During manic times, they need very little sleep, are very hyper, and don't really have much self control about anything. They sometimes spend a lot money and make rash decisions. Then the depression side, you are probably aware of... don't eat much, stay in bed all the time, no self-esteem, suicide thoughts etc.

I don't think that many people (relatively) are actually bipolar...however, the ones who are really really need some medication to get balanced out.

yes thats all true. I've had first hand experience dealing with someone who was. most people have mood swings...we all do. Bipolar is a whole different level though and those people who really are that bad usually need meds...and even then its hard for them to stay balanced

it may be over diagnosed at times but people who are actually bipolar need to seek some sort of help from a professional
