Please please, try to get an appointment with a cognitive or behavioural doctor. It doesn't look like bipolar symptoms but you are not in the position to gain control of your mental state all by yourself at the moment. You have to step back and find out techniques that suit your particular condition. Especially if you experience mild background depression with anxiety attacks (which could be the cause of the former or the other way around) (yes that's a mess). There might be multiple origins for your condition (be prepared to learn nasty things about yourself in the process) ranging from depression running in the family to health habit and inability to cope with mild anxiety or suffering from panic attacks.
I don't know how it's working in the US (assuming you live there) but you could get some good direction from university assistant or psychology faculty. Don't look out for a shrink or a psychiatrist (or even a psycho therapeutic thingie). IANAD. |
