Hi, I should know more tomorrow but my T thinks and I believe too that my inconsistent moods are part of cyclothymia. I don't know about the word manic but I get very elated and life is good, all is well then it doesn't take long before I'm irritated, depressed and angry

My initial treatment has been for major depression/ADD. I know the ADD is right because the adderall works so well. I see my p-doc tomorrow and found out from T last night that she doesn't work with him.

I read somewhere that I should use a mood log and then my T said to use a rating scale -5 to +5. I like that idea. If anyone knows the best way to track moods/cycling, I would love to hear it.

Thanks!
