This is something you may want to discuss with your Mental Health Provider. For a lot of people, it's a life long illness, being essentially both genetic and environmental, and for some it is pure environmental and passes when the difficulty is over. For me, with the background I have, it's most likely the combination of both - genetics and environmental. It was diagnosed about 18 years ago. Now it seems I've got Cyclothymia - which is a milder form of Bi-polar disorder, finally diagnosed just 2 weeks ago.
