I am not a medical doctor, but I am a psychologist and have a child with Bipolar disorder and ADHD. Your concern should be more about how ADHD medication affects the mania side of bipolar disorder, not the depression side. ADHD meds are typically stimulants (exception: Strattera) which could potentially trigger a manic episode. If this is the case, symptoms such as racing thoughts, disorganization, talktativeness, etc. could actually get worse, which is obviously opposite the reaction you wanted. My teen tried Focalin but it made him very overactive and even though he stated his focus was better, he couldn't settle down long enough to accomplish anything. He also talked our heads off! Adderal seems to work much better in his case. He is also on Lithium, which controls his mania pretty effectively. Every person is different and reacts differently to medications. What you need to do is find a good psychiatrist - no, you're not crazy - psychiatrists specialize in the use of behavior altering medications and can tell you how to monitor for undesirable signs when starting any new medication. They know what meds they can mix and what meds will be most helpful specific to your personal case. A good psychiatrist can change your whole life. Good luck to you!

The best place to get a Bi Polar test is at the doctor's office. They may refer you to a psychiatrist that may be better at understanding what you are going through.

It is not good to insult anyone regardless if they are bi-polar or not.
You can develop bi-polar disorder at any age.
It is a mood disorder that consists of drastic mood swings, that are at both sides of the pole. Either depression or mania. Rarely in between. Hence the name, BI POLAR. Manic depression is another reference to bi-polar disorder. ( BI=both POLAR=pole )

What exactly constitutes a health issue is culturally defined and varies from society to society as well as over time. A health issue is just like a problem with their health. Health issues are in humans, dogs, and other animals. For example a dog has hip dysplasia, which is a problem or issue with the bones. Health issues are treated with care, to stop the problem, until it gets more severe. Some examples are bi-polar disorder which Demi Lovato has, and I know a girl from my school who has bi-polar 1 and 2 and she deals with severe depression. I have to deal with ADHD and mild cebereal palsey. I have meds to take for my ADHD sometimes they work sometimes they don't.
