I think i have mental issues

[TonyGe]

I dont drink much, every other week maybe with couple of beers.

I dont have a drug problem either. I smoke alot of weed though.

Stop smoking weed. It may take a while for the THC to leave your body. If your going to smoke pot make sure it has very low THC. Even then it's probably not a good idea. Cutting out weed will rule it out as a factor. Most people are OK with weed but some people are sensitive to it.

How do you know if you are bi polar? I have a short fuse and snap easily. Im not as bad as i was in my teens-20s but its still pretty bad. I have a wife and two beautiful babies, im pretty succesful although i can do more.. i have some good things going for myself but inside, i am always angry.

I want to get to the bottom of it and find out why i have this rage inside me. I have problems..

Being bi-polar is far more than getting angry easily or getting sad easy. People that are bi-polar have EXTREME highs and lows. They're also VERY VERY impulsive. For instance, a person thats Bi-polar go on binges like on a payday theyll hit the Casino and can gamble nonstop, forget about sleeping, eating, or anything around them and focus on the HIGH of what excites them. Then they crash, cant get out of bed, wont leave the house or become suicidal. Its really 1 extreme to the next, almost like being a tweaker without the meth.

You have to be very careful when you deal with mental health, some psychiatrist (like lots of Dr's) are in the prescription pill game and make lots of $ when they prescribe their patients meds they dont need. Before going to a Dr. try getting more sleep, at least 7.5hrs a night, take a vacation, and work out in the mornings (if you can). Just sounds like you are a dad/husband that gets irritable at times, trust me I know the feeling. If you were bi-polar and not on meds you probably wouldnt be married nor be able to hold a job, especially a good paying one.

Angry for no reason? I dont think so. But the smallest things can make me get crazy. I am either extremely happy and bubbly or extremely down and sad. Too much up and down and it drives me nuts sometime.

this sounds like bipolar, you should get yourself checked out. you may need to be medicated to control the mood swings.

Yeah, that definitely sounds bi-polar. BUT, I'm not a professional (and no one here is). You need to get yourself evaluated by someone trained to make those kinds of diagnoses. If you are bi-polar, it's very treatable.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

you have too much energy.

I used to snap and hurt people in teh quickness now im more chilled now that im focus on a goal on a mission. When I was just floating is when I was really a problem.

Never seen weed make somone angry though.Unless they smoke a lot and run out lol.

Seek help immediately if you think you have a problem and this issue is affecting you - nothing wrong or weak with seeking help.

Talk to a psychiatrist / doctor, get them to check your mental health status.

For most people no it's not a problem. But it wouldn't hurt to stop and see if his mood improves.

Cant agrue with that but I think I would look elsewhere for prob.Because in all my life have never seen somone get mad after smoking weed(except for time when I was in Ireland and chic got all paranoid and thought me and her boyfriend wre giving her s hite)lol we literally could not stop lauging long enough to explain to her it was crazy makes me laugh just thinkin about it.
