Can you develop bi polar as late as your mid 40's and can you be on the bi polar spectrum ? My symtoms/concerns are:if you have deep suicidal depressions with suicidal attempts but barely noticible hypo mania. Example brain storming ideas at work that don't come to anything,anxiety,impluse buying of a car and animals. I was just thinking back over my behaviour in the run up to depression and wondered if this was hypomania.I've also been put on lithium for mood swings and feel this is very effective for me which again makes me wonder. Also I have a sister with bipolar since her teens.
Obviously as we say regularly on here we can't diagnose but I would be interested in what other people think or any scientific stuff.
Thanks
