Not sure where to start...

[msniki412]

I dont know what the problem is with me but it's really starting to affect me. I have horrible mood swings, I get irratiable quickly, I have an extreme short temper. I could be as happy as can be one min, and then somebody says the wrong thing to me my mood quickly jumps to being angry and mad. I tend to alwasy make people feel giulty about anything, and when I get mad at somebody I end of feeling guilty myself the next day and start to cry.

Last night got mad at my bf, and when i got home I texted him saying something like "thanks for runing a great night" i only said that to make him feel guilty. Why do i do this??? Whats wrong with me? I have to have some kind of disorder, but i dont know where to turn. I'm 22 and the only meds I take is Yasmin (birth control) and Inderal LA 120 (for migraines) Please help

To be sure you don't have Bipolar disoder or some other thing going on,I would say please see a psychiatrist. They are the best at diagnosing these problems. With bipolar there are certain criteria you need to meet but if you only meet some of them you could have a mood disorder, that's what I have. I take a mood stabelizer for it and I'm much better than when I was being treated for depression. None of the SSRI's helped but it was because I had a mood disorder.
You really need a professional who can diagnose you (or not) and give you meds if need be.
Everyone's bipolar is different but that's not to say you have it, you may have something altogether different.
Good luck, see a doc as soon as you can!!

Hello, I don't know if you are bipolar or not but if it really bothers you being so moody you could see your doctor about it. Also check out a list of bipolar symptoms and see if you have a lot of them. If you do, then you might want to see a doctor. Certain meds can help stabilize your mood so you don't have erratic mood swings everyday...or  you may just have stress in your life that is causing you to be moody so I'm not sure if it's a disorder or not. Talk to someone you trust about how you feel and seek advice.
Hope this helps,
