Ew. Emotional dysregulation wouldn't work for me. It isn't my "emotions" that are the issue, it's my mood and I'm fine with mood because I understand "mood" as something that hangs over and clouds perspective which naturally will affect judgement, thought, behaviors, emotions etc.

Never saw what was wrong with "manic depression" though.
