Default Does Alexandra have Bipolar Disorder?

My friends mum is a doctor and i was round her house on Sunday, we were talking about Alexandra in BB9. My friend's mum thinks Alex suffers from Bipolar Disorder. I didn't know what it was until she explained it to me.

Quote:
Bipolar disorder is not a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders defined by the presence of one or more episodes of abnormally elevated mood, clinically referred to as mania. Individuals who experience manic episodes also commonly experience depressive episodes or symptoms, or mixed episodes in which features of both mania and depression are present at the same time. These episodes are normally separated by periods of normal mood, but in some patients, depression and mania may rapidly alternate, known as rapid cycling.
In simpler words Rapid moodswings. For example when she lashed out at Rex when he took her lighter. The next minute she was calm.

As my friends mum went on it started to make sence to me, but does anyone know

Does Alex suffer from Bipolar?

Thanks DT x.
