I can only speak for myself and my mood changes rapidly. I never know how I'm going to feel five minutes from now. My mood is like the weather in fast-motion. And I know when I worked I was completely stressed-out and agitated just from the drive in the morning and I was a wreck for the rest of the day. If a driver or a light or my car pissed me off in some way it would get me right to the core. It's like a horrible emotional rollercoaster.
Prozac in the 90's made me hypomanic. Celexa, lexapro made me extremely agitated like my head was going to blow off. Effexor is one of the only ADs I can tolerate.
BP is very hard to diagnose. Psychiatrists shouldn't make a diagnosis of BP in 1 or 2 sessions but they do. They make all diagnoses in 1 or 2 sessions which is absurd. And they do not take into account personality disorders or other mental disorders which can overlap or be predominant. What a waste of money and time.
