i know it’s not just “teenage hormones” (18f). i cannot yet be given a diagnosis on anything though i will be talking to a psychiatrist. this is really fucked up, i hate this so much.

i’ll be full of energy, all these ideas and motivation. i’ll talk really fast and have no need for sleep.

then, i’ll get depressed. i was doing GREAT all week and today, but now i’m about to cry simply because my friend only spends time with her friend group and never me. i was mad at that and suddenly ready to block everyone but i feel guilty and im mad at myself for being this way.

i know she can hang out with her trio, i know we’re still friends. i normally wouldn’t be mad but i truly think i’m going insane.

    Sounds bipolar from your subjective description, but only an actual test from a licensed professional can say for sure. There are several other things that could be going on. It’s more difficult for women to get accurately diagnosed, so I apologize in advance for that disparity. It’s not fair, it’s not right, but it is something you should keep in mind. That being said, it’s not impossible to get an accurate diagnosis, effective treatment, and live a better life, you’re just going to have to work for it. Now that you’re an adult you can at least be your own advocate. You can look up resources and schedule appointments, and something should come of it eventually
