Sometimes my moods will change in a day- feeling awful then one thing can make me feel great for a short period, then i'll feel awful again or i'll feel 'hyper' for the rest of the evening. Or having great energy and wanting to do loads, which then changes to wanting to simply stop. I don't know if I could call it 'mania' as such though. It feels like i'm on a two weekly cycle when i'm feeling great and in control, but then it's as if i've got PMT symptoms when my period isn't due!
Any comments on this would be appreciated!

Hi,
I am in the same boat. My pyschologist thinks i may be bipolar because of my mood swings. I think its a bit extreme too. I am really moody around that time of the month also. I know for a fact I am depressed. I just started to take medicine for it... because I too am tired of feeling crazy and lashing out at everyone. I feel a lil bit better. Its too soon for me to tell if Im all the way "better". I say don't look at the diagnosis and be open to treatment. Thats what Im doing.
