Bipolar disorder is characterized by long (weeks or months) mood swings that range from very motivated and often positive to deeply depressed. When you're "up" you feel overconfident, impulsive, and restless. When you're "down," you are the opposite. There's no notion of false pattern recognition or conspiracy theories.

Not my place to pass judgement either way but don't just make things up when talking about mental health, it's not a good look.
