Psychiatrist: This emotional lability needs to be dealt with and could reveal underlying chronic anxiety or agitated depression. I strongly recommend that you undergo an evaluation by a psychiatrist for diagnosis and treatment. If he/she deems it advisable an examination by your Physician may also be needed to rule out other causes for your symptoms.
