[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you say more what made you think it might be bipolar? [/quote]

Yes, please share with us OP!
I am wondering.[/quote]

I don’t want to say too much, but he said he only feels extremes of either deep negativity or extreme happiness and that in the middle there is complete lack of feeling. He says he is most often in the negative space and to get through that he has to remind himself of the extreme happiness that will eventually come. He has never said anything like this before and he has always been a very subdued/cerebral person but also very rigid and black/white. He has said this a few times now and it has me worried. [/quote]

Is he talking very  very quickly, thoughts/speech flitting between topics so it’s hard to follow, not sleeping yet not feeling tired, grandiose, engaging in risky atypical behavior and/or spending money in a wildly uncharacteristic way? Obviously you need to see a doctor but if this answer to these is no bipolar is not likely based just on what you have said. [/quote]
