Bipolar symptoms checker – self evaluation

Sometimes your feelings can be so intense they prevent you from functioning normally. Your mood may swing from excessively "high" and/or irritable (called manic) to sad and low (called depression).

If you think you may have experienced or are experiencing the manic (hyper) phase of bipolar disorder, fill out this questionnaire, print it and take it to your doctor. If you don't have a visit scheduled, call to make an appointment.

Your answers will not be recorded or retained on this website.

The questionnaire is not intended to provide a diagnosis; only your doctor can help determine if you are experiencing the manic symptoms of bipolar disorder. The questionnaire, however, can be a valuable tool in helping to determine if further steps need to be taken.

(Your doctor also will help determine if you are experiencing the depressive symptoms of bipolar disorder.)
