I Have A Temper--Am I Bipolar?

by Anonymous

I have had a temper and can lose control. I have to change so I can get along with people.

When something happens I can't shut up--I just keep going and sometimes it leads to hitting and saying things I really don't mean.

So do I need anger management or am I bipolar? I have thyroid issues and an audio-processing disorder. Can you help?

Response from Dr. DeFoore

Hello, and thanks for telling your story here. I can't diagnose you, so I don't know if you're bipolar. It does seem clear, however, that you can use some anger management. I suggest you try the exercises on #1 on our FAQ page, and see if that helps.

There is a lot there, and if you do it all, I assure you that you will benefit.

My very best to you,

Dr. DeFoore
