Bipolar is manic highs, and then crashing lows. Do you go up and down in emotions?

Okay. The good news- you nailed it. The bad news, meds suck for this particular diagnosis. They can make you a zombie state. Lithium is usually the go to but it's toxic in high dosages. Some people complain it makes them zombie like.

Maybe go into your medical provider and tell them you suffer extreme highs, and extreme lows? Are there some meds that you can test out to see if something might be a match.
