Does location affect bipolar disorder?

You do not have bipolar.

Bipolar disorder is a mood disorder causing the sufferer to have mania or hypomania and depression.

I developed it at 14 and was diagnosed at 18. I go through weeks and months of being depressed, feeling suicidal, hopeless and worthless, going days without leaving bed, never washing or dressing or eating. Trying to kill myself and hurt myself. Sleeping over 18 hours a day and only getting up for the toilet and even then one day i went the whole day without doing that as i was too depressed to get up. Then ill switch into mania and i am the complete opposite. Stay up all night for days and days or get like 3 hours a night and am NEVER tired, completely full of energy and confidence. Reckless and impulsive. Do things like sleep with strangers, steal and shoplift, spend every penny i have on anything, drinking every day, doing drugs or all of the above. I think i can do anything I want and do not care about the consequences. Aggressive and have fits of rage, i once trashed my mums apartment and tore her front door down. Nothing is going fast enough for me. My body can't keep up with me and i am full of ideas. My thoughts race and i talk a million miles an hour. I have no control over my behavior or anything i say. In my last mania i tried to trampoline a moving car and I once told my psychiatrist all about my sex life and how i f**k the sh** out of my boyfriend when manic and how it sucks to be a loonbag. I also hear voices telling me to kill myself and harm others and have hallucinations and delusions that lead me to be a danger to myself.

Bipolar moods are more than emotional highs and lows, its mania and depression, and when you are in either state you are in it for weeks and months on end and your mood doesn't change at all then after however long you switch to normal or the opposite state.

No thats not how it works, regardless of where you are you are in the same state for weeks and months and its so extreme most people don't work or turn up to school or college. I know i didn't in episodes.

I don't think you're bipolar, but see a doctor if you want a professional word for it.

Yes, it sounds to me, from your description, that you are bipolar.

Bipolar disorder, as I'm sure you know, involves mood swings;

and your changing of moods are mainly due to your surroundings

at any time of day or night.

Whether or not you decide to see a doctor for this is up to you.

But, knowing a someone with bipolar disorder--who isn't seeing a

doctor-- I've noticed that their communication abilities are severely

impaired. (In fact, he doesn't show any signs that he's aware of what

his problem is.)

You, on the other hand, obviously do know you have a problem that

needs to be treated. And for that, I commend you.

I wish you the best of luck.

No it does not. Bipolar moods last for weeks or months and location has no bearing on them. Sounds like you love your job but are just not so happy at school or at home..... that has nothing to do with Bipolar.
