I'm new to Mumsnet and I'm not sure if I've posted this in the right thread or not.
Im 19 years old and since I was about 15 I have been suffering from depression. Its not constant depression though, I have been keeping track and for for 7 weeks and 2 days Ive been feeling on top of the world. Like literally invincable and I've loved my life, I've woke up today and immediately I wanted to cry. All day Ive been bursting into tears over absolutly nothing. Even now as Im writing this I feel like crying and nothing has upset me.
Last month when I was feeling happy I went to see a psychiatric nurse as my mum & I thought that I had Bi-Polar. The nurse didnt think so and she couldnt find anything wrong with me. Not only have I been to see the nurse but Ive been to my G.P several times and he does nothing for me and allways tells me to come back in a few weeks and see what I feel like. Ive looked on the internet and havnt been able to find anything that matches me.
Ive felt great for nearly 2 months and now I feel like crap, I feel like i have nothing thats good in my life.
From what I have kept track of for 2 months I am extremly happy and then for about 3 months I am in despair over my life and dont have the energy to even get out of bed.
Is there anybody out there who could help me figure out whats wrong?
