Hi! Thanks for consulting with Chat Doctor. The symptoms which you have described in your post are consistent with a mood disorder.  This condition is characterized by a wide range of internal emotional states and loss of control over them.  It may include both depressive episodes and bipolar episodes.  To determine what is causing your mood swings and how best to treat them, please let me know if you are having any of the following symptoms and for how long - Depressive symptoms - sleep disturbances, loss of interest, guilty feelings, loss of energy, loss of concentration, appetite changes, suicidal thoughtsBipolar disorder symptoms (manic) - easily distracted, irresponsibility, racing thoughts, agitation, decreased need for sleep, increased talkativeness, increased in goal-directed activities.  It is important to distinguish exactly which symptoms you are experiencing as the treatment for bipolar disorder is different from the treatment for depression.  Mood stabilizers (lithium, Valerie acid, carbamazepine) are often given to treat Bipolar disorder.  I would also recommend consulting with a psychiatrist if the symptoms persist. I hope this helps and do not hesitate to ask if you have any questions. Take care,
