Holy shnitzel, I thought it was just my personality the whole time :o)
I am a 34 year old female. I have dealt with depression and SAD as long as I can remember. I believe I am Bipolar, and have now just began looking for answers and treatment.

Now this above mentioned difficulty exists whether I am "up" or "down" (mostly down); I can be happy-go-lucky one day with a person, and the next day get "stuck", or as said in an above post, barely put 2 words together or even look at that same person in the eye. I wonder, if not worry, what they think of me. Are they as aware of this as I?

My biggest challenge is not just feeling/acting differently from day to day, but feeling/being a different person depending apon who I'm (dealing) with as well. On an average day I could be a "shrinking violet" with one person, usually an authority type, while on the other hand be quite outgoing and even aggressive with someone else. What the f^ck is that all about?

If I could rely on identifying with my values that would be great, but my moral fibre seems to be made of wax...gotta watch out for those hot summer days!

Or could it just be my dual Gemini nature? LOL...
