im 16 years old and have been experiencing strange symptoms. i have had strange mood changes but its more than typical teenage ones. i went online to research this topic and the list of symptoms described me completley. i went to my doctor and she said i was too young. im worried because ive read what bipolar can lead to.

id appreciate ANY advice on the subject.

thanks

1st of all calm down and be willing to trust your dr.
He or she may be a bit scared to dio someone with BP.
Ask your parents, teachers, or others you know what they think. If they say that the mood swings are a problem then try to get an apt with a Phcy dr.
