Who do you see to diagnose depression/bipolar disorder and get meds for it?
I found out recently that it runs in my family, and it explained alot.
I just don't know who to go to to get meds to stop it or reduce it.

Indeed; your family's doctor should be able to help you. If not, try seeing a psychiatrist.

But I thought doctors were just for physical issues.
Not mental...

So I just call up my doctor and say "I think I have bipolar disorder. Could I make an apointment?"

before going i suggest you call him and talk to him about it. then he could arrange you to see someone or just prescribe the medicine.

What are your view on councelors/therapists, also?
I figure I might just finally let my Dad shove me into it like he's been trying to.

You can go to your doctor.

You could see a doctor and ask for a referral to a psychiatrist.
