Answers:
Get professional help: bipolar disorder is difficult to self-diagnose (and even if you are convinced you're bipolar, that's not going to help you very much without professional treatment, no.?). If your problems are seriously interfering your life (and it sounds like they do), it's worth seeking out help, even if it turns out you're not bipolar. It's not going to hurt to check it out.
Research about the disorder. The more convinced you are that you have the disorder, the more likely you would seek professional help. Meanwhile, why don't you check out some of these websites.? (if you haven't already come across them):

And of course, if you're comfortable with it, ask your dad about his experiences with bipolar disorder. He's probably the most accessible person who could relate to your situation.
Oh, and take the words of the people on this site with a liberal spoonful of salt (all more). Most of us are dorks (me included). SEEK PROFESSIONAL ADVICE!
Wish you all the best.Health Question & Answer

well...people with one or both parents having any type of mental disorder are prone to develop them as well, but its not necessary. its likely that u've leraned some behaviour patterns from ur father, may be unconsciously, and during emotionally distressing situations, u show such behavioral patterns. anyways, smoking is not good for u at all, it can affect to ur emotional states as well. and it also shows that u r not good at handeling such situations on ur own. anyways, u should see a psychiatrist and a psychologist, not necessarily for bipolar problem, but to handle ur emotions effectively. also, they'll ruleout, if u meet the criteria for bipolar disorder. so u'll have added help and guidance:)...good luck with that.Health Question & Answer
I hate to say it but I think you might be. I'm not sure if its something that is genetic or not but It sounds like a problem. A serious enough problem for you to get checked if its something that is really limiting you. Or maybe just talk to you dad about it. :)
