If I tick alot of the boxes of Bipolar what are the cures. I thought I was going through menapause but when i looked at all the symptoms listed I must admit it seems more than that. I am erratic in every way. I either sleep well and then I m still tired so I tell myslf that too much sleep s not good for me. I get extremely angry at my partner for negative things I feel he says, things which I know are childish to respond to but they make me very angry and want to be left alone. I then swing to being creative and blame him for blocking this. I am a hoarder and spend alot of my money money n things I do not need, I justify this that I do home day care, but I have ample of everything, then I feel I am suffocating and have massive clean outs only to run with the same patter again. i have severe bouts of depression missing my family and I turn to drink cause it makes me feel better and therefore I feel it goes away. I feel I just want to be with my children and save to go away on vacations, I am erratic about this too.I have intercourse with my partner when I have had alcohol but have no thoughts or fantasy of this when I am sober. i function well with my work and fulfill all my requirements.I made a children s cd of songs, written and produced entirely by me but now I have been offered opportunities and feel immense feeling of failure without the nous or support to fulfill them, so I shift onto going to write a book. I am rational and a massive support to my friends. I enjoy time alone. in my own thought but with my children still there around me.I was depressed years ago but I was also treated very badly by my then partner at the time. Again I can look back at that situation as can he and see.I started to take anti depression tablets at this time but got off them on my own after two weeks as I saw it was not me but my situation. I don t know
