Ive been feeling very irritable for about a week now. It goes between me feeling happy talkative and joking with people to feeling like i want to cry or punch someone for simple things. I was just on facebook and saw a post from one of my friends who I will admit is a jerk. The post pissed me off and I'm fighting the urge to txt him and cuss him out. I know its irrational and i dont want to talk about what it said. i just feel like im going crazy. The worst part is I know hes a jer and doesnt care most of the time and it drives me crazy and pisses me off. I want to remain friends with him but i dont know if thats possible if hes a trigger for me or something.

He does sound like a trigger for you. Maybe you can at least avoid him until you feel more stable.

It also sounds like you might be having what's called a mixed state--or manic symptoms. I know irritability can be associated with both mania or depression.

I suggest you talk to your doc about what's happening.

I've been alternating between the super happy/joking/talkative state to getting super irritable.. It's terrible and I hope you're ok

I had a friend similar who I believe was a trigger for me as well. I wanted to remain friends with him but we ended up having a falling out because of it and I think it was probably the best thing that could have happened.

Sounds to me that if this person is that much of a jerk and makes you miserable then that's a friend you don't need. It's probably safe to assume that he won't change and will just continue to piss you off and make you feel bad.
