But my mood changes very quickly from happy to agitated and it's a burden in my life?

Dr. Heidi Fowler answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

You need assessment: Tell your doctor about your mood, energy level, concentration, memory, self esteem, motivation levels, sex drive, sleep & appetite. Crying spells, feelings of helplessness or hopelessness are pertinent as well as your capacity to feel joy. Let your doctor know immediately if you have suicidal thoughts.
