The past few days, I've been having these mood swings that are making me feel a little crazy. I was feeling pretty good for a few days, and had some energy in the area of expanding my social circle... I so reached out to a few people that I don't usually hang out with, and invited them to get a cup of coffee or go for a walk. Yesterday afternoon, I was even feeling like the fog in my life had lifted, and I had a clearer picture of long range goals and what I needed to do to get there (rather than just surviving day-to-day like I usually do.) But last night, my mood just crashed. I hadn't heard back from 2 of the 3 people I had reached out to and was feeling like I had been blown off, and like there must be something wrong with me... and was feeling blown off by my best friend at the same time. (She had invited me to do something today, but then canceled our plans with a rather cold sounding e-mail.) Today, I'm still feeling pretty blah and low energy, and am unfortunately about to head in to work, which is a difficult place to be, even on a good day.

Does anyone else out there have these mood swings, when you are feeling good at one moment, and then downright awful a few hours later? How do you deal with them?
