Am i possibly ADD or bipolar?

I am age 17 and have had depression since I was 6. I repeated 1st grade on my inability to focus on the teacher, while i went through 1st grade(again), and 2d grade with good grades and no previous problems. I started homeschooling out of situational purposes when i started 3d grade. In that process, my mom and step dad sold their houses and we moved into a motor home, so we could travel. Also my mom continued to have seizures every week. she had had three different illnesses (one being bipolar) that the doctors could find no treatment for even after 40 years of misdiagnoses.
When i was a child i never had hyperactivity problems, and always was quiet around people. but in the past three years i have noticed more and more occurrences where i get extremely manic for no reason other than not getting my normal 9 hours of sleep. my friends always seem to jump to conclusions asking if im high or on something. I have a terrible way of managing my time and often don't get to sleep till 2 or 3 am, which then causes my sleep problems. my mother now is studying to be a natural health consultant after finding that the seizures were caused by an allergic reaction to MSG, which is in all processed foods. Because of this, i take a minimal amount of i guess u would say UNnatural medicine, and have never gone to drugs or anything else as an outlet. In the past 5 years, i have also been getting behind in my school. I still keep good grades, but it is always hard to focus, and my mother has had to get extentions on my homework due dates, so i may finish. now i am 3 years behind in my school years, which has caused my low self esteem. I blame myself on not being able to focus on my schoolwork as much i wish to get ahead, and have long ignored the thought that i could have a disorder. Also, my real father is also bipolar and has always had a drug and alcohol problem. his example is the reason why ive never gone to drugs. Other symptoms I've always had though are severe mood swings, and at times racing thoughts.

Why don't you try and get a diagnosis for yourself? Conventional medicine is what works for some people, don't let your mum's interests and beliefs get in the way of what might be right for you. it might seem as though avoiding what are essentially chemicals can only be healthier than taking them but to my mind you should take a holistic approach to things like this, which includes conventional medicine as well as alternative. You're at an age where if you don't make an effort to nail this and get treatment (whatever that might be) you could mess things up for yourself for a long time so take charge of this yourself and pursue a diagnosis as a priority.
