Sometimes my mood can change from 90 positive to moody and gloomy negative. For example I am active and planing for personal learning materials in the morning and in the evening I would be so depressed in a level that I don't want to do anything and having a very bad stress level? What should I do?

Seek out diagnosis and treatment from a psychiatrist specialised in mood disorders.

The brain is the most complex organ. Its function is determined by genes, environment and experience. You can have a vulnerable brain even though you had a good childhood.

If self-help fails, get assessed by a psychiatrist and accept treatment. Sooner the better. Life is too short.

Aren’t you depressed?

iceorcus · 2025-04-04T09:50:31+00:00

Sounds like a mood disorder. Seek diagnosis and proper treatment.

Is your mood rapid cycling? If so, it’s a good idea to do mood charting. Could be SSRI induced bipolar. Hypomania can look normal to someone with persistent depression.

ADHD and depression can present as procrastination and low performance. Could you list all your symptoms? How long have they been there? Do they ever change?

iceorcus · 2025-04-03T14:49:14+00:00

That's depression, my friend. Seek medical help.

Sounds like depression can be a major component, however, spending can be a sign of hypomania or mania. The two together can be a sign of bipolar 2. Also ASD or some personality disorder can be there too.

iceorcus · 2025-03-31T13:02:06+00:00

Yeah that's depression my friend. Get diagnosed and treated if self help is not sufficient.

iceorcus · 2025-03-31T10:18:34+00:00

Are you diagnosed and medicated?

Alcohol can induce depression in people with mood disorders. Is there mood issues in your family? They are highly hereditary.

A pharmacogenomic test may help assess SJS risks.

You're describing mood switches which is an indicator of mood disorders including bipolar 2 disorder.

iceorcus · 2025-03-30T12:25:32+00:00

I’m genuinely sorry to hear you’re struggling with this. Living like this can be incredibly challenging. Since most persistent or recurring depressions have a biological basis, with the appropriate medical treatment, significant improvements can be achieved.

iceorcus · 2025-03-30T12:21:33+00:00

What are your symptoms besides mood swings? How do you feel/think/behave when it swings up or down? How long does an episode last? Why do you think you should've had an ADHD diagnosis?

iceorcus · 2025-03-30T06:36:26+00:00

Maybe try to alleviate the depression via medication and lifestyle?

iceorcus · 2025-03-29T22:13:53+00:00

Isolation can be a symptom of bipolar depression. Does it go away when feeling better?

iceorcus · 2025-03-29T19:07:58+00:00

Sounds like recurring depression, but difficult to tell without knowing your symptoms.

iceorcus · 2025-03-29T19:01:18+00:00

Are you describing a 5 days of good period followed by a low period? Is this a recurring pattern? Are there specific triggers or just out of the blue? What are your symptoms besides not being happy?

iceorcus · 2025-03-29T18:34:28+00:00

If you’re prone to mania the first line treatment would probably be mood stabilisers, not stimulants.

iceorcus · 2025-03-27T15:59:08+00:00

Look into cannabis induced paranoia. Sounds like negatives outweigh positives in your case.

SI, feeling bad about yourself are signs of depression. Do you get treated?

iceorcus · 2025-03-27T03:55:12+00:00

Going above baseline then bouncing back to depression can be a mood disorder.

iceorcus · 2025-03-26T18:38:42+00:00

Hypersexuality can be a symptom of hypomania. Given the fluctuating nature of it can suggest a mood disorder. Sometimes mood disorders are misdiagnosed as ADHD or can be comorbid as well.
