Mood swings...

Lately I've been having terrible mood swings and it's a little frightening to me. One day I'm crying a river and the next I'm having all kinds of anxiety and obsessive worrying. Then the next day I'll feel completely numb and then feel incredibly depressed. Then the next day I'm completely fine, feeling like myself. But when I do feel like myself I worry that I just feel fine and I wonder why, what changed, will it last. It's confusing and a little alarming.

Has anyone experienced anything like this?

(((Jess))) That must be really scary & difficult tolive with. I have had spells of anxiety or depression, but never swings in mood like you describe. This could be a normal reaction to all the recent changes in your life. Or, it might be a hormonal thing or some sort of deficiency. I would probably see my medical dr. to make sure I was ok. Hope you feel better soon. (((hugs))) jan

Yes, I have that happen to me, as well, but not very often.

I'm not on meds yet. I'm waiting for my doctor to call me back. He had suggested Celexa, but I had some questions for him before I wanted to take it. Also need a script. I may just end up doing a walk in appointment on Monday.

I'm not glad that you have experienced this too, but I am glad that I'm not the only one. Does that make sense? lol
