> I dont have bipolar. I know that for sure. Even when I was feeling my best during the depression that time when i went off the paxil I was not feeling better than normal. Not even close. I was just feeling kinda decent during the minor theft. So I was motivated to steal some nice keychains for my fiance. the depression though limits my inhibitions. I didn't have fear of getting caught. if I was my normal self I woudl worry about getting caught.
Dear Adamie,
How do you know for sure about the bipolar suggestion? Your symptoms say it's something more than plain vanilla depression, in Kid47's and my opinion. Lack of inhibition is a big symptom of bipolar, as well as the stealing in the first place. Yeah, most bipolars who are in the middle of a manic or hypomanic episode think stealing is exciting and fun, they get a real kick out of fooling the store owners, it gives a real "high." Used to do it myself...When you feel a little better, look up some information on typical bipolar behaviors. Don't rule it out. If you are, and take the Wellbutrin, it might really push you into a manic episode, and that won't be good for your health. Also, perhaps get a real diagnosis from a good psychiatrist. We're behind you 100%, so write back as needed...
