Some say 'bipolar' automatically but there's evidence that this is incorrect. She could have possible been borderline, or had borderline personality disorder. She frequently dropped men and friends out of her life. She felt she didn't understand who she was, and simple things that most could overcome devastated her into short fits of anger or depression, or suicide attempts.
She was extremely insightful but at times was either so impassioned or hateful, it was impossible for her to function or live a normal life. Yet at the same time she could be seen as charming and enjoy herself sometimes - there are even pictures of her smiling in swimsuits at the beach. Contrary to what people may think, not every single day in Sylvia's life was she depressed or miserable. Her moods fluctuated but she didn't, it appears now, seem to have the core bipolar symptoms of uncontrollable mania/irritability that could last for more than a week, for weeks even. She had more borderline symptoms than anything else.
Sylvia Plath was known to have a fear of abandonment, rejection, and failure. Her struggles with mental health, relationships, and the pressure to succeed as a writer also contributed to her fears.
