Depression?: Moodiness doesn't = a disorder. But adolescents can get depression, ptsd, pmdd, & bipolar disorder. These are mood disorders. Mood disorders often lead to suicide thoughts and self injurious behavior. If you are withdrawn, have lost interest in previously enjoyable activities, dropped grades in school, are irritable, think of suicide or what it would be like to be dead, see your doctor right away.
