What is the likelihood i have cyclothymia? i have erratic moodswings, and my self image changes. i am irritable often, and cannot easily focus.

See ans: Cyclothmia is not an easy 'checklist' diagnosis. Mood swings, irritability, poor concentration etc. can have different causes. Consider seeing your pcp to rule out underlying medical factors. Be honest about meds you take, any alcohol/drug/tobacco/drug use and current stresses. If all is negative, see an experienced mental health professional for guidance. I hope this helps.
