i go " bam" some times myself, it is one aspect that has assisted my curiosity of the label on me.... however when mentioning this to the last pdoc, she mentioned that's rapid cycling, along with my other factors like the PTSD.

but not alone, a quick google search another soul has described this

My mood may swing from one part of the day to another. I may wake up low at 10 am, but be high and excitable by 3 pm. I may not sleep for more than 2 hours one night, being full of creative energy, but by midday be so fatigued it is an effort to breathe.
and a omg moment for me comes when reading

I will sometimes drive faster than usual, need less sleep and can concentrate well, making quick and accurate decisions. At these times I can also be sociable, talkative and fun, focused at times, distracted at others. If this state of elevation continues I often find that feelings of violence and irritability towards those I love will start to creep in. Concentration and memory start to wane and I can become hypersensitive to noise. The children making their usual noise and my husband singing can drive me to distraction.
