I feel weird. Could I be bipolar or is this just depression?

So I've been having this derealization/depersonalization feeling lately. I also have no motivation and just kind of zone out all of the time. Sometimes it feels like I'm just like "stuck" inside my head and I don't feel connected with anybody or anything. I feel like just being away from people because I feel so weird and different. I also have panic attacks (almost daily) and anxiety about pretty much everything. My doctor attributes it to depression & anxiety. However, I'm afraid I'm bipolar. Because today I still had all those feelings previously described but I had energy again. I was so energetic I literally jumped in the air. Also, I sometimes have surges of emotions (like love or excitement) that come when I think of something that makes me happy (like my daughter, etc). I used to do drugs so I don't know if the aftermath of my drug use could be causing that ( I think someone on here said that could be the case). Anyway, does this sound like bipoloar or just depression/anxiety?
Also when I said lately in the first sentence, I meant I've been having this feelings for months.
Also, just thought I should add this- I don't feel sad or depressed or like I have high self-esteem (on the manic end) or anything- I just feel like a misfit. Like I'm bored with my life or something. Like I don't fit in with the world and it really scares me and that's why I don't like to be around people.
 
Well coming from a sufferer of bi-polar, it could it to be honest. I started experiencing feelings very similar to this.
But it could also be Borderline Personality disorder. What you are saying are symptomatic of both and more disorders.
You have to go get it checked out.
