Wow,I do the same things…..haven’t told my doctor about the cuting though…..I don’t really “cut” myself I just scratch myself with the back end of a knife until I sometimes bleed….TMI I know…..But what you can do when you are sad or in a certain mood is tell yourself that it will go away soon…that helps me alot.

My father, uncle, and grandmother all have bipolar disorder. When I was 11, I was diagnosed with it after I tried to kill myself. Now, I’m thirteen. I act happy because i don’t want to go to therapy, but I barely sleep, i feel awful all the time, and I feel like my world is falling apart and there isn’t a thing I can do about it.

i’m not sure if ii have it, i’m 14 i have a lot of long phases where i’m very depressed, at one point i was going to throw myself of a bridge and i was going to cut myself, but for a long time now i’ve been very against self harm which scared me so badly when i wanted to do it myself, i also get very happily hyper at which point i find i can’t sleep at all where i run around shout very loudly talk back to everyone and find myself being creative where i write stories and make movies late at night

@DJLoony1 i also find myself depressed when someone has said somethign to me or i am forced to sit and watch as all my friends fall in love or do something that i rarely experience which makes me feel unloved and ugly, for 3 years i’ve been depressed, getting ALOT worse this past year, the hyperness doesn’t happen very often but it does sometimes, before i started my period i found myself thinking i way a freak and that was why no guy wanted te because i wasn’t mature enough for any of them

@DJLoony1 i’ve spoke to 2 of my close friends and have found myself very scared and crying, i have worried that the guy i like (who my best friend made a beeline for when she found out which upset me alot) will push me away as a possible boyfriend and already best friend, i am worried my friends will think differently of me the school will make a fuss i will be bullied since i kind of am already and that even my family will think of me differently, and this all if i even have it!
