Answers:
H mm... to find out, I'd guess you'd have to go get checked at a doctor, since most self examinations give inaccurate results.

I can help you on the difference between them:

Depressed - Client is in a negative state and does not feel need/have a purpose for any more progression in life. This is caused by a decreased amount of neurons passing through special sensors in your brain (These neurons are what enable you to be happy).

Bi Polar - Psychiatric diagnosis that describes a category of mood disorders. You can notice this by a sudden elevated mood (can be any mood, but is usually negative. ie sadness, anger) that's clinically described as mania.

Chemical imbalance - Self explanatory, the chemicals in your brain aren't correctly balanced. This can be fixed with medication. Being chemically imbalanced can help lead to depression.

Hope i helped.Health Question & Answer

You find out if you are depressed, or bipolar by seeing a psychologist or psychiatrist.


Bipolar and depression are both chemical imbalances. Depression can cause symptoms of feeling sad, lonely, loss of appetite, and irritability. In severe cases, people may become suicidal.

Bipolar causes mood swings, which involve two main factors, mania and depression.

In the manic phase, the bipolar individual may sleep much less, be very focussed on certain things/too motivated, and be quick to anger.

In the depressive phase, the individual might become very sad, lose motivation, sleep a lot, and may have suicidal thoughts.


If you think you might be either depressed or bipolar, like most psych teachers say, do NOT diagnose yourself. See a psychiatrist immediately!Health Question & Answer
