Hi

Another mood swinger here too.

I read and reread the criteria for bipolar many times over the years when i was trying to work out what was wrong with me. It never quite fit though. My moods swing in seconds or minutes and can swing back immediately after, whereas bipolar, I think, tends to be episodes of emotional extremes which last much longer.

Having started on concerta I’ve noticed a marked change in my mood which seems much more stable at least for a few hours a day.
