instruction: hello doctor I think I am bipolar just a couple of weeks ago I felt and was told by my friends that I was more energetic and crazy than usual now I feel like there is no hope and nobody really cares but there is also that little bit of me that is telling me that I am faking this and that all I want is attention I just want to know what the heck is up with my head
output: hello it is a little early at your age to be diagnosed with bipolar illness sometimes that part of normal teenage hormones and puberty when it is mixed with some depressive symptoms basically if you are depressed you will feel irritable low feel like crying sad do not wish to eat have difficulty sleep there can be anxiety tiredness headaches etc in bipolar illness there will be a period of these depressive symptoms and then after a period of normalcy the reverse happens that is you feel unusually happy for no reason there are episodes of spending money excessively on things which you do not need or maybe excessive use of alcohol other illicit drugs sex irritable behavior decreased need for sleep and still feeling fresh grandiose talks and ideas many non goal directed activities etc so if you have not had the manic or hypomanic phase then you probably suffered from major depressive disorder or generalized anxiety disorder
