So, I guess I'm just curious. Do any of you have a good idea of what triggers mood swings/changes? What causes you to feel low, or high, or come back to 'baseline'?
I know that some things have an effect on me; routine, whether I get the right amount of sleep. Travel, sometimes, maybe. But beyond that I have no idea. I can be low for months in spite of feeling that things in my life are good, and when I start feeling better, it's difficult to identify anything that has changed. It's very frustrating! I feel like if I had a better idea of what causes it, it would be easier to work on changing things.

i don't know what causes my ups and downs either, i think it is my illness the bipolar part of it. i am also schitzophrenic so that doesn't help either. all i do is enjoy the good days and deal with the bad ones as best as i can although sometimes it is just too much to handle too.then i call my doc or t.

It feels like the end of the world when someone points out something I messed up on at work.

environments like classrooms, support groups, even yoga class causes extreme anxiety and impulse (TMI, and overtalking) I find myself to be obnoxious and ashamed....afterwards of course.

Almost anything my mother says is a trigger. If she tries to be nice, I don't trust her. If she's encouraging, I see her as controlling. If I try to express my opinion and it differs from hers, she's critical and judgmental in my eyes. I always feel okay when we start talking, but I dread the moment that I know will come - one of us will upset the other and then it'll be hard to talk to each other again.
I never expect to hear "No" - I take it very personal and I turn the negativity of that word on myself.. they said no to me because I'm no good, because I don't deserve that.....because i'm a horrible person... |

People telling me that "things will get better." It makes me so pissed.
