| I think I have BP
I'm a 22 year old man in college right now. This hasn't hit me until I came to here, so I think what triggered it was just having college jitters in general. If I indeed have this illness, then it's likely that I inherited it from my father, since he has it as well (although his is much worse, because of his unfortunate life choices).
When I researched they had a list of signs and symptoms, here are the ones I noticed that apply to me:
· Feelings of heightened energy, creativity, and euphoria
· Sleeping too much, or can't sleep
· Lasting sad, anxious, or empty mood
· Feelings of guilt
· Racing thoughts; jumping from one idea to another
· A lasting period of behavior that is different from usual
· Difficulty concentrating, remembering, making decisions
· Delusions (false, strongly held beliefs not influenced by logical reasoning or explained by a person's usual cultural concepts)
This Thursday I'm going to see a Physician on campus to get checked out.
