Mood swings: If you can't afford a therapist, please talk to your primary care provider right away. If you're feeling suicidal, call the national suicide prevention lifeline at 1-800-273-8255 right away. You need to speak to a live person.

This warrants: A comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. It is important to rule in/ out a mood disorder. Mood disorders are treatable. If you are having
thoughts about killing yourself when you get this, get seen at nearest emergency room now. Have a friend or relative drive you or call 911 for emergency services for transport. You can call the national suicide hotlines 24/7 at 1-800-suicide (1-800-784-2433).
