I’m way too nice to people and I always end up getting taken advantage of.

Is this normal? Could it be because I only drink coffee once in a blue moon and when I make it I make it too strong?

Okay I get very upset and cry often lately. At school I am all positive and sometimes get talkative (I don’t cry at school). I think it’s mood swings and so do some of my friends. Or is it more than that? None of my relatives that I know of aren’t bipolar so I don’t think it is hereditary. I get happy at times when around friends and then all gloomy and depressed around family. I don’t know what’s going on. Please Help!!!
NOTE: I am 12 but look 14 in many ways.

Please. Help me.

I have a friend who i think may be bipolar. he used to be this reall happy, cares-about-everyone kind of person, but since his exgirlfriend started going out with another guy, he has been suicidal and has been literally trying to kill the guy. this just isnt like him. is he bipolar?

So i have been going back and forth trying to find out what would help, and my symptoms of whatever i got don’t totally fit the cycle period.

For me i can be extremely happy and then in the SAME DAY without change of anything be extremely mad or depressed. The depression periods can be totally different in lvls as to what some would say “suicidal”. I have talked to about 3 doctors and 3 therapists and most of them (5/6) say i have bipolar disorder but on the other hand the “switch” doesn’t make since. My Happy level can be really high…feel extremely good about myself, very content and pro-active, but not over the top. My anger can get to a point where i have broken 2 nuckles, at least 3 fingers, holes in many walls, have took sledge hammers to bikes and stuff to tire myself out…and much more. Depression periods can be very bad, as this year i only attended 68% of school (so far) as many days there was just no way for me to get out of bed (and days i had to leave before i snapped) ,most times i wished i was dead (excuse was that i built up an ammunity to LEXIPRO 20mg…but from the beginning it never put it away just calmed it a slight bit).
Things this year have been worse than ever…as how its inflicting in my life… (senior year should be happy…) besides missing school for being very depressed, some days when i would go, i just couldn’t concentrate, no control of thoughts, things just rushing like crazy…sometimes it becomes sort of like a dream, so much that i would drive home going 100-120, sometimes hit corners that i shouldn’t have made, close my eyes…just like i wasn’t there… There were and still occasionally are times where i get soo PUMPED? that i feel like i could take anyone, there was like no pain…always want to start fights and its extremely hard to hold it back…EXTREMELY HARD.

well, i really don’t know what to do… when im happy i pray that it stays that way and i do everything i can, but then in the same day i find myself in a 100% different frame of mind, angry at everyone, everything… and just don’t care.

im curious someone i know may be?
and what are their thoughts?

We think our nephew may be bipolar.

I have a friend who might fit the criteria. She gets ideas in her mind for no reason, rambles alot, always wants people to be dooing things for her and to apologize to her, thinks everyone is out to get her, is always mad, confused and unstable, depressed, only happy when drinking or someone is doing what she wants, contradicts herself alot, doesnt take responsiblity for her actions, says one thing and does another, thinks its okay to complain about other peoples actions, but if its her who does the same, then others are supposed to be understanding, very selfish.
