Hello Another Day Down,
I really feel for you. I know what it's like to see yourself doing things and not being able to explain the uncontrolable things you do and having to apologize and explain yourself to people when you have no explanations.
There are lots of people here who will identify with you. I promise.
I would suggest one thing. Make a doctor appointment and keep it. Even if you begin to feel better, keep it. You need to be evaluated once and for all and get an answer to these things. I would suggest seeing either a phychologist who will be able to evaluate your symptoms and then if needed, refer you to a psychiatrist for medication, or see a psychiatrist in the initial step. Either way is OK. Please do not go to your general practitioner. All they will try to do is prescribe some psychotropic medications (like antidepressants or the like) and regular doctors simply do not know enough about those special medications to prescribe them really well. Besides, they might not know what kind you would need, if any.
I can tell you are really upset that this keeps happening. Frankly, if I was your friend who you call up and talk to on a regular basis, I would say, wow, it sounds like one day you are up, going 100 miles an hours. A few days later, you are b****** and biting everyone's head off. I would wonder if you are bipolar or something. I am bipolar. Of course, they say that if the only tool you have is a hammer, then everything looks like a nail. So, I always think everyone is bipolar.  Just kidding.
But please, make an appointment and keep it. We really care about you. Let us know what happens.
