My version of rapid cycling:
8:00 am out on the patio drinking coffee life is beautiful. 9:00 am if an asteroid destroyed the earth I wouldn't care. 10:00 am oh wow my new painting is so beautiful 11:00 am oh my God my painting is so ugly I should be jailed Noon: I'm hungry but I can't decide what to eat. 1:00 pm I decide to become a libertarian 2:00 pm I check Facebook and declare that the entire world is insane. 3:00 pm I decide the leader of the world health organization is the antichrist. 4:00 I decide to clean out my closet because I have to many clothes. 5:00 pm I cry because I don't have anything to wear. 6:00 pm eat dinner but feel guilty because I'm gaining weight 7:00 pm weigh myself and discover I've actually lost weight 8:00 pm decide that life is just not worth living it's all a masquerade. 9:00 pm decide that I simply must go to Nepal before I die and surf travel plans. 10:00 pm go to bed and ponder my exhistance.

Shazerac: Oh wow, I'm really sorry that this is your day to day life.
I can kind of relate, but not 100%. Not everyday but I'd probably say once to a couple of times a week. One day last week I was crying, then laughing at everything, then feeling really empty and just wanting to sleep all in the same day. I've gotten so used to that. I'm very sorry you have to deal with that. I wish you didn't.  I hope you don't mind me asking you this question but how were you and your pdoc able to distinguish between your rapid cycling and "being moody"? My therapist thinks my mood swings are pretty normal, so I sometimes feel I'm making a big deal out of things. =/ Sorry if this question was uncalled for. I'm just trying to gain some clarity.
