for a while now i wonder whether i might have bipolar but i am confused because i don't have all the symptoms but sumtimes im buzzing, want to talk forever, laugh til the tears cum to my eyes yet lata still feel awful, feel like a performer on a stage then want to hide away forever, thinking all the time constantly! agitated, restless, anxious, angry with a frustration i just can't explain, can't form proper relationships, i liked sumone at uni i'd txt her constantly one nite then ignore her for like 3 days and not because i was being nasty just felt like being awkward for no reason, deciding to buy a guitar but never playing it, cracking jokes and doing impressions of ppl, ironically my friends think i am so confident and outgoing yet i feel so negative about myself, its like i'm Jekyll and Hyde, sometimes i get so angry i feel trapped in a prison, broken sleep, i have started to write little poems before i go to bed at night and at times i can write and write forever at 3am and other times can barely think of 3 words to put down, sorry for the long message first time on here thank you

Hi and welcome :)
a lot of things can cause mood and emotional fluctuations
have you taken any of the psychological tests and quizzes here? that may help you with some answers too
http://psychcentral.com/quizzes/
let us know how you do on those
Are you still at university? often they have psychologists on staff in the college clinic so you may be able to have an evaluation there too
hopefully some of our other members here with more knowledge on bipolar disorder will be along soon to offer you more info
all the best
Have you talked to a psychologist or therapist about this, either?
It could be bipolar, but as Chemar said, lots of things can cause mood fluctuations.
Hormones, etc, can change things.
Get to a doctor if you feel you need it checked out.
Best,
