A member asked:
Why do i have dramatic and sudden mood swings and severe depression?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Psychiatric help: The symptoms suggest a bipolar disorder. Manic behavior and alternation with depression should be assessed by a psychiatrist. Treatment can be very effective in controlling this problem.

This can't be: diagnosed without a thorough psychiatric evaluation. Your symptoms suggest a mood disorder. Would encourage prompt assessment.
