Q: I think my boyfriend might be bipolar

<!--[endif]-->

I have been with my boyfriend for a little over a year. Throughout our relationship I would notice him having what I call down days, where he seems like everything is wrong but he has no reason. I have depression so I know how it is, but I know that not it, I’m sure it has to be something more. I didn't start to think bipolar until recently. He bought me a promise ring for my birthday and three weeks later he put us on a break. We live together now and some days he’s so happy to be there and will hug me and tell me how great I am and other days (sometimes even later that day) he will get mad at me for no reason. It is the worst when we fight. Normally our arguments come out of nowhere like forgetting to do something or doing something small he would get annoyed with when I would do. But then the fights exploded he talks down on me trashes me tells me that things I’m doing are making things worse he gets so angry of the smallest things. But then hours or a day later he will come back hugging me and acting like nothing was wrong and saying he doesn't know why he acted that way. I don't know if it is bipolar disorder or something else. All I know is that it makes no sense to me as to why he would be perfectly fine and then insanely made in a matter of minutes if there wasn't something wrong.

 

I just am so lost and I need a solution, I got to counseling but none of the techniques I try help. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
