Question

Hi,

I have done a lot of research into bipolar disorder and obsessive complulsiveness. For the last 3 years, after setbacks of certain endeavors, i've come to realize I might be highly cycling in moods. My main problem is, I've been highly fatigued. I'm a college student. When I understand that my academic performance is in a critical state, I responded, but immediately after this session I fell into the same lull again. Recently, I've experienced something else that's been a constant source of uncertainty. Since then, I've been unable to sleep well. I can't shake off as a minor or a simple depression, because immediately afterward, I was highly excited and happy afterward, causing more sleep-loss. At the risk of seeming arrogant, I'm highly creative, and people recognize that I am. I know I have the energy and motivation.
But I am always falling into the same thought process,and fatigue, appetite shifts, migranes. Are there any examples of bpd that I can use to guage myself?
