well, unless you're interested in pursuing medication, there's no real need to get a diagnosis. what i recommend is, pay close attention to how you feel and what comes before it. you will notice that things trigger it. also, you can try activities to counter how you're feeling. for example, if you feel really good and "high", do calm things like reading or going for a walk - because if you ARE bipolar, your lows can be as low as your highs are high. so you don't want to let the highs run away with you.
if you say that you go for weeks at a time feeling fine...you might even be cyclothymic, which is very mild and a different kind of bipolar. read up on it and if it rings true for you, i have a workbook that could help you.
i am always missing something and someone too. it is part of loving and being loved and sometimes i don't like it. :'[
