If my brother is bipolar, can I be too?

ok, well my brother is bipolor, and I was wondering if that means I could be too. sometimes I feel really angry and frustraited for no reason at all, I’ll be happy and fine one minute, and out of nowhere I feel really frustraited and mad and like I want to just break something, for no reason at all. is that bipolor, or just normal teenage things? I dont really know, and was just wondering if my brother being bipolor could mean I have more of a chance of it.

Thanks!
