You can tell if you have bipolar disease by going to the doctor and getting some tests done. The doctor will be able to determine if you indeed do have bipolar disease. You cannot diagnose yourself with something like this.
Bipolar is also known as manic-depressive. The individual alternates between states of manic activity and being depressed.
No not really. You can tell a bipolar person from another. Bipolar persons will go through many mood swings. The person can feel happy about something one instant and then the next they could be sad or depressed. I would know as my mother is bipolar.

We do not know. I would be remiss if I listed all the guesses. I will say that studies have shown it is imprinted at conception. (i.e.; it can run in families)
Two criteria: You fit the symptoms and your life sucks.
That all depends on the medication. Different medicines used to treat bipolar are often used for many other purposes. Tegretol, for example, is sometimes prescribed for bipolar but is also used to treat certain kinds of headaches. Seroquel, as another popular example, is often used for sleep or for depression.
