Lately I have extreme mood swings. I can be deeply depressed for a while and out of the blue I feel one day quite normal or at least not deeply depressed, restles however. I have mixed feelings of that, I get a bit of hope but also anxiety: how will tomorrow be? Will I get a good nights sleep, will I be back in the black hole tomorrow or can I pick up my life?
Those days that I feel better I get so many ideas and plans I almost wanna jump up and fly. But I know that this can or will be over soon. And that throws me back on the floor. Im on disability but on days like this I want to go to work. Buy my boss never accepts that tomorrow I can be depressed again. What can I do about this? Sometimes I wish that I was "just" depressed, at least that is a stable situation. Or always uplifted mood. But not this roller-coaster.

Sounds like you are having a rough time. Ups and downs like you describe can be very disheartening. Have you spoken to your doctor about it? You might could try relaxation techniques to calm the anxiety. I use breathing exercises to help calm my anxiety. It takes some practice but really helps.
