I'm on the mirena (sp?) IUD thing. I don't have a period either. I'm also unmedicated with my bipolar. For me, I think it's a combination of too much trauma and bipolar.

In the last two years it's like something has broke inside me. I used to be so laid back and easy going. Now I'm explosive anger. I just yell. I don't take crap any more. If I feel attacked, I point it out and can get mad really easy if dismissed. It's like I'm becoming a whole other person.... an angry person. Irritable, agitated, short fuse temper.... it's very unsettling for me and my husband is strugglign with it.

My theory for myself is I used to bottle it all up. Now, after so much has happened, something inside of me snapped and I can't hold it in. I'm trying to learn coping techniques on how to deal with this and make it less. How to express my anger in a healthier way. It's not easy.

I don't know if birthcontrol pills will help or not. For me all birth control pills did was kill my libido and make me feel horrible all the time. The IUD is low dose of whatever so I do better on it.
