I was wondering if anyone else suffers from mood swings too?
I used to have really bad mood swings and get stressed pretty easy and then mid last year my moods started to calm down a hell of a lot and up until this weekend just gone i felt quite happy.
But this weekend just gone my moods have been all over the place.. it seems the slightest thing can tick me off and the person who gets the stick is my other half!
I dont know what it is that could have changed my moods so suddenly either i am trying to contain the stress but i just snap, i am also feeling very emotional too, I keep crying and i just dont know what to do with myself.
Krystle, I'm sorry that you're suffering with frequent mood swings. Have you ever been diagnosed with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder? Do you have really big highs (spend lots of $ and feel like you're on top of the world? then really deep lows/depression -- days of just not being yourself, crying, anxious, sleep problems (either sleeping all the time or not at all?) That is how I was diagnosed with bipolar and have been on a mood stablilizer/antipsychotic med called Seroquel. It really has normalized my life and it may just help you! I found (and so did my new doctor) that antidepressants made me mood swings WORSE, so that may also be something to think about.
Wishing you the best and if you ever want to chat, I'm here. Send me a PM or email.

Hi Jackie,
Thankyou for your reply and support.
No i have never been diagnosed with either of those.
I never experience highs, most of the time i am in a "normal" mood - just happy when things make me happy etc. I've neither been one to go mad with money either.
Basically around about 4 - 5 months ago i was always snappy especially towards my boyfriend.. but that had nothing to do with him, He is very supportive of me and treats me very well. I just tend to snap at him because he is the closest to me and we are always together.
But anyway i got out of the habit of being irratable and moody and it has lasted for around 4 - 5 months until this weekend just gone.
I have been fine one minute and the next if something annoys me i get irratated and peed off!!
& after ive stressed at my boyfriend i get really emotional and cry because i hate taking it out on him.
The only thing i can think of that is causing this is i used to take vitamin b supplements which at the time i heard helped settle bad moods etc.. and once i had been on them a while and i was backed to myself i stopped.. so maybe i need to start taking them again??

I'm moody by nature DBF thinks its 6 of "us" total living inside of me *lol* But I definitely can relate to the swings...I'm happy then frustrated, then irate, then crying, then back happy with in the span of 30 mins...I find that when I take my bcomplex 50 vitamin faithfully my swings are most definitely under control....Its when I stop taking them "the many faces of Tah" emerge and DBF runs for cover...So if you're not taking a b complex vit, maybe you can try that out and see it helps some

Wow that explains everything then!!!!
I was taking a b vitamin complex and the reason i stopped was because i felt like i was back to "normal" so to speak so i stopped and thats why my moods have been all over the place then - best start taking them again now..
Thanks girls you have been alot of help and have put my mind at ease!!
