I'm sorry you're going through such a hard time!

Since you're so depressed at the moment, it seems that's what most needs to be addressed. I hope you can figure things out and work with your pdoc to develop a good treatment plan when you see him/her.

Usually, moods that go up and down/change so rapidly (within minutes, a given day) do not point to bipolar disorder. It's far more common for moods (of both depression and hypo/mania) to last for several days, to weeks, to months, with stable periods in between. Maybe you can start charting your moods, when and how often they change, possible triggers, in preparation for your pdoc appointment.

Whatever it is, you need help and I'm glad you have an appointment. I hope you get the help you need and feel better soon.
Thanks for this!
