SUSPECT BI-POLAR II

Hi all
I ve just joined so hi to all. I have an assesment next week in relation to my mental health. The symtoms are mood swings gradually getting worse from day to day/ hour to hour, please note during these I have never been in trouble or gone on spending sprees.I get anxiety attacks before I meet my friends, I am beginning to isolate myself. I had a pretty active social life and this is gradually going. Last weekend after large amounts of alcohol/self medicating I was pritty much redundant for 2 days till my mood stabilised.

I suspest one of the following

Cyclothemia

Dysthemia

Bi polar 2

Any reply would be appreciated

Hi

Thanks for the speedy reply. My apologies for the capital typo. My mania presents itself as becoming extremely social ,slightly over social infact, energy levels increase and rapid thoughts. At no point during my mania have i been in trouble with the law or went on spending sprees. I am depressed a lot of the time but as soon as i hit the gym and loose the anger im fine till late evening then my mood gradually declines. My depressive episodes are quite bad, i cant think clearly alot of negative thoughts and extreme irratibility.

Thanks FLYBOY
