bipolar websites
I think I'm bipolar?
I feel I have many symptoms of bipolar disorder and have even taken tests online from different websites, and all they say it can be bipolar. But when I tell my mom that thinks I'm joking. so not even going to take me anywhere to be tested. and every time someone says he gets all serious on me and tells me I'm not. and I have no idea what to do. I am 14 years old. Could it be simply as a kind of phase or something? I have no idea. help please?
Well, from the viewpoint of mom, she probably does not want to even think that you might … I know it was devastated when I learned that my twins 6 years (yes, I said SIX!) have it. Not because I thought they were bad or I was embarrassed or anything, but only I know how hard it is to live with this. I'm sure your mom, you're probably looking from another angle. We will not even go there. Let's get a some cold, hard facts to help you here. Fact 1. Children as young as 3 and 4 are diagnosed with early-onset bipolar. Fact 2. The sooner you receive treatment the better for you, something a mother should respond very favorably to the break (psychotic His name can be relieved or reduced, if indeed you have). Here is a way to get enough convincing evidence and data: There is an excellent book "The Bipolar Child" ( "child", ie not an adult) and also a website you can go http://www.BipolarChild.com right now that actually has the questionnaires for children because the symptoms are different for children than for adults. Wait until you check it out, you might be surprised. Who knows, your mom might be surprised. I hope this helps, and I pray that your mom's heart was opened to their plight.
