At this point I'm 99.9% certain I have bipolar.
I'm just unsure of what type.
At first I thought seasonal affective disorder but Winter is my favorite season but I do also get depressed around then...
And then I thought cyclothymia but my symptoms aren't nearly that mild.
So I was looking up stuff on type I and type II.
It says type II never has delusions/hallucinations in hypomanic episodes.
But I have had this it is just very very rare.
The main questions I have are:
Is it possible to have Bipolar I or II with it being more active in winter?
Would I most likely just be bipolar unclassified?
And, do you have any advice for me?
((As far as treatment I take St.Johns Wort (recommended to me by a friend) as needed but I rarely do so because it makes me feel weak to give into drugs although St.Johns has helped me when I needed it))
