I'm 23, and it's been 2 years that I'm suffering from a sever mood disorder. Periods of depression where everything seems wrong. And small periods (hours) of clear mind thinking, where everything just make sense. And then periods of stability where I'm, well, like everybody else.
I was told by a friend that this is called a bipolar disorder http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bipolar_disorder. I started looking for reasons that might have caused this, so maybe it is the alcohol? or lack of sleep? or maybe a past relationship failure? I just don't know what changed in my life that can be behind this.
The only thing I know is that it is affecting my life in a very strange way; making me both creative and self-hater.
Did anyone here, members of HN, suffer from this? Do you have any advice ?
Please do share your experiencesPS: I know, my english sucks.
