    No it doesn't sound like bipolar at all, bipolar is much more complex and disabling than that, just sounds like fluctuating moods which is normal and happens to everyone

    No it isn't bipolar and you shouldn't be self diagnosing. Make an appointment with your doctor

      Try not to worry about it Hun , stress alone can make you unwell. To be honest most people with bipolar don't even realise they are unwell, so it's a good sign that you realise your moods go up and down. You may have S.A.D. I would look for a second opinion if your not happy with the answers you've gotten so far.

      The only person bl to diagnose bipolar is a psychiatrist.  A dr will send someone to one if they suspect its possible.  Its a very severe and debilitating illness, its not anything to do with feeling regular levels of mood shifts.  Stop googling.
