Have they suggested borderline at all? Very sudden mood swings and extreme reactions to triggers are common in borderline. There are an unbelievable amount of people misdiagnosed with Bipolar.

Are you overall depressive? My emotions are more severe if I am overall depressive. I will cry more and react to triggers differently. But this is not constant, it only happens during a depressive episode.

Perhaps rating your mood differently might help also. Instead of a number system I use a diary that has boxes to tick from severe mania to severe depression, I tick the box that best suits my mood. I find this easier to manage than numbers.
