Is it adolescence when the symptoms of Bipolar become more clear? I DO believe I'm witnessing difficult child actually cycling!!!! For instance, today we took him to the Bass Pro Shop...a huge hunting, fishing, camping, etc. store. {I was a trooper and kept a smile on my face the whole time (yuk)} He started out fine and he and husband were picking out new lures, then we went upstairs to the hunting (double yuk) stuff and the next thing I knew he was pouting and saying, "Is all I'm going to get is a stupid hat, and a shirt?" He cried, wouldn't even order any lunch, sat there with his arms crossed. He'd been wanting to go to this store for weeks! Then as we were walking out, he started skipping (?) and saying, "Thank you , thank you , thank you. That was LOTS of fun!!"??????????
I wonder if this is the kind of thing I would notice if he was cycling? He had the same type of behavior yesterday...even husband noticed.
Not that I would want my difficult child to be bipolar, but on the other hand, it would be such a relief to have some of his behaviors in a place where I could understand them better.
Any thoughts or experience??
