My grandfather died over the weekend. I think you could be in grief. Grief can trigger different feelings.
I couldn't reach the doc Monday and slept almost all of yesterday's business hours, so he doesn't know what's going on with me yet. I'm flipping moods like a fish out of water. From crying to feeling like I'm climbing out of my skin to utter calm and then back again. But the real question is is it abnormal to have a manic episode the first week of December (which the doc did nothing about, so I didn't call last week when it started again) and then to have another one so soon? When I've been pretty much only on the depressed side of things for a full year previous? And did I go back into hypomanic state again? Is that likely from stress? Yes hon, stress can do strange things to you.

I think that you are just a victim of bad body chemistry. I have to remind myself of that when I cycle into depression. You may want to talk to your doctor about either getting medicated or about how you have been feeling so that you can get properly medicated. You'll feel so much better once you are medicated right.
