I'm just reading the comments and happy to know I'm not alone. I was complaining about mood swings around my cycle long before I was dx with BP. Recently my pdoc sent me to have some hormone testing done. Everything was normal, my brain's response to hormonal fluctuations is the problem. The depo provera shot has been suggested but I won't try it. I have had bad experiences with depression with birth control pills, patches, and rings. I just brace myself every month for the ride. Sometimes it's up. Sometimes it's down.
