“How do I detect it?”
How do I know if I don't have it or if I do? Sometimes I have crazy mood swings and I can't explain them. Sometimes I'm happy and all I want to do is run around and sometimes I'm just sad and I want everyone to shut up and leave me alone.

I assume that you are referring to your mood swings, Intense mood swings, often not explainable are not uncommon in adolescents. However it would be advisable to consult a competent psychiatrist or psychologist for an evaluation. But beware, too many people are misdiagnosed as having bipolar disorder. If medication is recommended get a second opinion.
You are going through some things every one goes through. You need someone to talk to about things. Therapist, life coaching or friend or neighbor or family member
