Well, let's see, so I think I may be bipolar. OH NOEZ! Yeah anyways, how do I tell my parents that I want to see someone about this? I mean, I am not certain, so I want to make sure. I mean, how can I explain it to them when they do not even know what panic attacks are and I have a lot of them? So yeah, help?

Be patient, honey child! This isn't a fast paced forum.
Well, you could always tell them you just want to go see someone to make sure everything is ok. You don't have to tell them about the bipolar part just yet if you're not really comfortable or if you're still unsure. Or you could print out some information for them so that they can read about bipolar and see what it is.
If you are in school, you could talk to a counselor and see what he or she thinks about your being bipolar.

Haha, I solved the problem! Thank you for the advice though, I actaully took the advice of a best friend of mine though. <3 We'll see what happens. I am just afraid of how my parents will react.

Sorry, love. ^^; GH is kind of slow.
But uhn. Just tell them you wanna' see a shrink; if they start calling you names/weird and stuff, just tell them, "It's not that I see stuff or anything; I just start freaking out and stuff and I read up on it, and I might need meds for it."
Just be blunt, y'know? Maybe print something off about panic attacks.

Well, the "big problem" is the fact that I might be bipolar. But yeah, I told my psychology teacher if he could help me to tell my parents about that and he said that he will tell a nurse, my resource teacher, and my counselor. My resource teacher, which I have known her since I started high school told me yesterday that she will set up a meeting with my parents. But yeah, I hope my parents do not act out or react in a rash manner, I really want help before it gets worse.

!!! It sounds like you've really taken ahold of things yourself, and fixed the problem on your own! :'D Good for you!
Let us know how things turn out tho', 'kay? I know some parents can be skeptical, but if you have another adult tell them about this stuff, it should turn out pretty well. <3 ^___^

Oh wow, I came out telling my parents about my uncle touching me when I was younger. I kept it to myself all these years and I just felt like coming clean, and I thought my mom would be mad at me because she usually is, but she was only shocked. She told my dad and now a detective type person is going to talk to me on Monday, I hope I can be relaxed. I know I will be honest, but that is about it. But I don't know if that caused me to think I'm bipolar or not...I still want to see someone about it, but right now I'm shoving that away so I can focus on what my uncle did to me. I don't know if I'll have to go to court and testify against him, I hope I do not do something rash if I have to see him again. My family lost contact with him when we left California, but I can tell from photographs that my family and his family got along well. I just hope that I don't destroy his family from coming out from what he did to me, I do not want them to hate me or my family.

That's very, very good. D: I'm sorry that he did that to you, but I'm really happy that you came out and said that.
I also hope that everything turns out okay with him and your family, etc. <3
