Yeah, so..
I was wondering.
Is it normal to behave the way I do, or am I mental. D:

I'll give you an example, because it's hardish to explain.

I have a best friend named Whitney.
I'll be reading DN Angel, a manga I really like, and I'll show it to her.
She'll like it and get her mom to go out and buy the entire what, 10 of them I think it is? She gets all DN Angel crazy, and I start looking for a new series to read because now someone I know is somehwat like me.
Or I'll be wearing new shoes, and someone at school already has them.
I'll throw them out and go back to wearing my beat up, old shoes.
I cut my hair is the weirdest ways, dress really odd.
I NEED to be different. It's like, if anyone is somewhat like me at all, same hobby or whatever, I totally freak and try to change.

Walking to say, gym class, I'll be early/late and no one will be in the hallway to the gym, so I'll pull out my schedule and check it over and over until I reach the changing rooms and see people.
:/
And other things.
My dad says my attitude sucks.
Like, I'll be all happy and perfect to get along with, and then I'll turn into this horrible b***h that no one can stand to be around.
I'll get wicked depressed or wicked happy, and my mood is beyond scary.

And, I don't really know what to do about it, but it's really bugging me.
I've lost friends because they tried to find the same interests as me sothat we could talk about it together, and then got mad at them when they started talking about how huge a fan they were. And my mood is making people stop talking to me, even my dad. When we're on the phone, he'll hang up sometimes because I get so annoyed at the littlest thing he's say, and throw the phone at the wall. :/

What the ********? >_<

I'm not sure. It sounds like you try to identify with yourself by being different from everyone else, but I don't think it's healthy that you're taking it to such a strong degree.

The only thing I can think of to suggest would be to talk to a counsellor/therapist, or to seek professional help. Sorry. whee

Yeah, probably. >_<
I used to talk to a therapist, all she did was send me to this weird doctor that put me on anti-depressants for people 18+. They made me have mini seizure things. ._.

Hmmm... maybe there's another type of anti-depressants you could try, that wouldn't make you have seizures? Or a different type of medication? Or a different type of therapist/psychologist?

I'm not even depressed, though. gonk

Maybe I do need another therapist, though.
I haven't talked to one in a couple years.
My dad keeps asking me if I want to go back.

You don't have to be depressed to see a therapist. smile I just suggested one because I thought it might help if you talked to someone about your problems, or about this personality/mood-swings of yours. If you see a psychiatrist, they'd be able to prescribe you with something, if they feel you need it.

My point is simply I think you need help of some sort, since it's obvious this problem of yours isn't going away on its own.

Don't take this offensively- I know a lot of thoughtless people throw this word around- but I think you may be bipolar. My cousin has it and each person varies slightly, but what you just described sounds fairly similar. Look into it- there may be a solution there.
