  2. BPHope.com is a website dedicated to the treatment, nurturing and hope for people with bipolar disorder. They offer innumerable articles on everything ranging from the symptoms of bipolar disorder and what it’s like to have bipolar disorder, to how to manage family life, work and dating.

  3. When it comes to getting a test for bipolar disorder and subsequent diagnosis, consult a doctor. There are a number of exams and tests for bipolar that are performed to determine the existence of bipolar disorder. First, there is a physical exam. This helps the doctor determine if there are any other medical issues present that might be the cause of the symptoms the person is experiencing. Secondly, there is a psychological evaluation.

  4. During this test for bipolar disorder, the person is asked to fill out a questionnaire and also answer questions surrounding their thought patterns, behavior and feelings. Family and friends may be asked to contribute their knowledge and information about the individual’s moods and behavior, as well. The next step in the test for bipolar disorder is mood charting. Keeping a daily record of sleep patterns and moods will help accurately pinpoint if the individual is suffering from bipolar disorder.

  5. And finally, the doctor compares the individual’s symptoms with the criteria already in place for bipolar disorder and other related disorders. It is only after going through this battery of bipolar tests that a person can legitimately be diagnosed one way or the other with having bipolar disorder.
