I guess the 'label' would be rapid cycling (4 or episodes a year, normal in between) --but weren't you stable for longer periods before the first circles of hell started at work? If that's the case, and I actually have no idea if this is possible, but I wonder if having a big episode could kind of destabilize someone for a while, make them cycle more rapidly for a period of time? Dunno.
