Being Bipolar

Note: I've not been professionally diagnosed as being bipolar, yet I've been told by several folks that I exhibit symptoms of being one.

Honestly, I genuinely get tired of the way my emotions constantly fluctuate within a span of hours.

I don't know whether this is “normal” & whether I should be “medicated” (which I'd honestly be completely against), but yeah, sharing my experience:

• Being alone can either make you feel euphoric or completely shit.

• No trigger is even needed to feel small & miserable. I think a part of me finds comfort in being miserable, feeling self-pity & not working.

• Social isolation can heighten the effects of bipolarity (if that's a word)

P.S. I probably shouldn't share all this on a public forum + I don't want to look like a pity-seeking parasite
