I am seventeen and possibly bipolar

Hello, I was hoping I could get some feedback or advice regarding certain mental healh issues. In January 2017, I started feeling depressed and I would frequently cry, at first my family thought it was just a phase but it went on for months. I eventually tried to get help but it was futile as my suicidal thoughts were not taken seriously. The depressed feeling escalated and I developed delusional thoughts, I thought everyone was out to get me, and could barely talk to anyone. I became absent from school for a very long time. In recent months the depression has turned into euphoria, I became impulsive and damaged many friendships everyone I know has remarked that there has been a drastic change and have voiced their concern. I am having more luck with my current Psychiatricst who has prescribed Risperdal to me, which sometimes helps. I was also wondering how anyone´s experience taking this drug has been? Many thanks to anyone who bothers to read this and repy
