Suggest Treatment For Bipolar Disorder Having Severe Mood Swings

I am suffering with an untreated bipolar disorder. Lately I've been finding it harder and harder to sleep, maybe getting four hours a day. Nightmares are getting worse and mood swings are horrible. I'm extremely angry, or depressed there is no in between or rest period for my emotions. Any suggestions as to what is going on?
